Porta Band Stand

 

Hey folks , I have this old Milwaukee porta band that has ben hanging out since i retired . It's a lot heavier that I remember them being . Have any of you come up with a bench or even a free standing setup that will let ya use a porta band like a cut off saw . I'm looking for ideas, pics , things that didn't work .

thanks

Proud of it, aren't they??

I bought the Hercules stand at HF, and they're on sale IIRC. Does both vertical & horizontal for only a bit more. Haven't gotten to set mine up, yet, but it looks pretty good. It is absolutely not as simple as the one in your link. Which would be much easier to store. Should be pretty easy to make one like it, too.

There are a lot of YouTube videos on converting those to vertical BS. Some good. Some bad.

Here's the one I made:
There are others there, some are arguably better than mine.
