Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Yes, it's a small saw (~1300mm blade range ) Thanks for the tip. That's a prominent thing I need to look at, especially if it's a second hand.

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Pierre-Raymond, If its very small saws you are looking at with plastic wheels they are unlikely to use tyres.? However it would be most unusual to find a saw with metal wheels that doesn't have

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Just been comparing the new tyre with the old and I have to say the old rubber or synthetic rubber tyre is far more grippy than the TPU version. Think I'll still press ahead with the second one but

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
I will step in for Julian if OK.... Thanks a lot John and Julian. Sounds clear for me now. I'm currently seeking a small band saw for metal and I was confused because the models I looked

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Well, seems to fit OK.? Could be a little wider and thicker.? I think the reason for the discrepancy is I measured the old tyre while it was on the wheel.? I stretched it off the wheel to use the

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Pierre-Raymond, It's a tyre for a band saw wheel.? I'll post photos once they're fitted which will better explain things, but imagine what you see in the photo stretched out to a circle and wrapped

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Pierre. I will step in for Julian if OK. Basically it is a tyre or in the US called "tire", normally moulded of some rubber compound. It fits on the circumference of the driver and driven wheels. Very

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Mike I will measure the diameter of the wheels and let you know. FWI, I have to buy special but welded ( not off the shelf) blades 1555 mm , normal size I believe for a typical Harbour Freight is 1400

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Julian What drafting programme did you use to create the shape in the photo, guessing "9 curves" ? after measuring the circumference of the wheels. Also did you have to deduct the overall length of

Re: Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!
Excellent Julian, thanks for sharing. Necessity is the mother of invention. 3D printers have allowed me more versatility in the way to approach the "fix it" or "repair situations" of everyday

Of possible interest to people with 3D printers and band saws!

Re: #3D Fractal vice. #3D
Well yes and no. You’d want to take the STL files and expand them by about 3% to 5% to deal with shrinkage. Next using the lost PLA process you’d have to cover them in a silica plaster mix and
