Bandsaw Modifications and Tooling

This area of the site contains projects related to my bandsaw.

The bandsaw is a Machine Mart 6×4.5" horizontal/vertical bandsaw that I bought second hand on ebay for about £70. In many ways you could see why it was less than a third of the normal retail price, but it does what I need. I added a simple end-stop to the bandsaw and modified the mechanism for tightening the drive belt, but for the first 8 years of ownership that was about all I did with it apart from cut! In late 2019 and early 2020 I started a project to restore the bandsaw to its former glory. The result is shown in the photo on the right.
