Re: Replacement spring for Harbor Freight saw
Well, I figured Grizz was the best chance, but there are others. There is also Jet, part number HVBS462-047 for their spring. Lot of Jet dealers out there. I¡¯d contact Jet directly. And Northern

Re: Replacement spring for Harbor Freight saw
Grizzly is out of stock for the 147 spring. I will try for the Shop Fox. Thanks for the info! Dave

Re: Replacement spring for Harbor Freight saw
Hi Dave Do you need another spring because an eye broke off the end? You can thread a bit of aluminium (or any other metal) to screw into the inside of the broken end of the spring. It has a

Re: Replacement spring for Harbor Freight saw
Have you tried Grizzly? Part number for their spring is P0622147 for their G0622 saw. Or look at the Shop Fox, which Grizzly carries, spring part number X1715047, which is described as 22 x 4.5 x 215

Replacement spring for Harbor Freight saw
I need a replacement spring for my HF 4x6 saw and HF doesn't have any in stock. Can anyone tell me what aftermarket spring could be used? McMaster Carr? Thanks Dave Bluffton SC

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Robert, Didn't know that, thanks for the info. The funny part about this saw is that both of those situations may have bee. True! :) Darren ?Get BlueMail for Android ?

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
As I've written before (but maybe not here?), all Single Phase Capacitor Start AC motors are reversible. Those that appear not to be just don't have the necessary wires run out and require partial

Re: Saw stand wheels, on floor or off the floor?
Lots of good information in this thread. On motors and wiring, I continue to be surprised that nobody seems to be advising the use of motor overload protection ("motor starters") with these saws.

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Well....again, I don¡¯t know why they would have used a reversible motor on a band saw. Maybe they cost less, or maybe they used the same motor on different machines, and set the rotation to suit the

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Bill, We're both assuming the motor is original. The reversing is in the motor itself. I have to switch 2 wires after the hot and neutral connections. Weird stuff, for sure. Or..... could I have

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
I have never seen a band saw that has a reversible motor. All I have been around, the blade travels toward the fixed jaw of the vise. This makes sense if you think about

Well, good news, for me anyway. :) I ran across this 1976 ad on Vintage Machinery. http://vintagemachinery.org/mfgindex/detail.aspx?id=9393 http://vintagemachinery.org/mfgindex/detail.aspx?id=9393 The

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
It seems yours moves opposite to mine Bill. More twist on the blade makes my blade move toward the rim on a 4x6's wheel (more strongly at the bottom than at the top). Retracting your bottom guide

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
That¡¯s a good point! I have a fixture I built for cutting angles. In order to use it for larger diameter tubing, I have to slide the lower blade guide toward the drive wheel, as far and close as it
By Bill Armstrong · #14672 ·
Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Just picked up on the blade running off the drive wheel when vertical cutting. Very odd if it doesn't do that when cutting horizontally. 4x6's will shuck the blade off the bottom (drive) wheel) when

Sent this once before but never appeared, sorry it it subsequently comes up twice - jv It turned out real nice Darren. From experience you'll find casters on the front a big help in moving. My

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Hi Darren, Nice looking saw! You¡¯ve done a great job on it. As to the wheels, I stuck mine on 4 swivel wheels about a year ago, the 2 on the end away from the motor are locking. When I forget to

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Bill, That caused me a good chuckle. I may find an old banana seat off a bicycle. :) Actually, as old as I'm getting, maybe an old man bike seat.... Thanks Darren [4x6bandsaw]

Re: OT: Bainbridge 712 resurrection
Do a bit of tweaking, and see whatcha got. Can¡¯t get enough¡­.may have to do a bit of a mod (grinder) so you can get there. FYI, my saw, doing nothing, the blade will generally ride on the idler,
