Hi , I just joined this group . I have a 4x6 Clarke bandsaw from TSC. I bought it in Oct. 07. I blacksmith and weld. Yesterday I cut some 1.5x1.5 4140 for a...
I'm in the process of making a wooden (shudder) roll-around for my band saw. I wanted to make the supports on the motor end longer so the saw isn't so "tipsy"...
AMEN TO ALL OF THEM ... From: Carl <bayhouse@...> Subject: [4x6bandsaw] Damned Spammer To: 4x6bandsaw@yahoogroups.com Date: Thursday, August 7, 2008,...
Hello; I am cross-posting this in several of the machining groups on YAHOO. If you have seen it before, my apologies and please delete. Recently the...
Randy, I wanted to make a super-duper coolant-equipped SH metal stand for my bandsaw but never could devote the time to do it. One day I got so frustrated...
Thanks for the photo Dave; I made this one. http://coleman-family.org/g2/main.php?g2_itemId=2071 The thing I wanted to do is not have the saw tip over...
Randy, Good job! Definitely longer on the back end (and inherently more stable) than mine. I haven't noticed the tendency to tip backwards on mine but I have...
hi all I'm from Ireland I have a 6x4 sip bandsaw it's very similar to most of the bandsaw you get in Europe it's the swing over arm type which is very handy...
Scarecrow. Check out the photo albums on the web site. Both "Chip's Saw" and "HDC Mods" have a cylinder on the downfeed and "Cletus's Bandsaw mods" has a...
This is just a quick hello since I just joined the group. I am working on a small volume exhaust system project and have been steered towards a 4x6 bandsaw as...
FYI - if you can wait, the HF one goes on sale occasionally at maybe 160, and you can combine a 10-15% off coupon with that to pay even less. IIRC, that is...
Thanks Jerry! The project needs to get rolling within a month or so. That Jet apparently has four years of use on it, owned by the proverbial grandfather type...
Small exhaust systems? Tell me what your doing. I have an entire shop set up for this very purpose. Might be able to help you if you are close as well. ...
Right now the HF 4x6 is on sale for $164. I just grabbed one, with the 15% off coupon, a year of insurance and sales tax it was $171 out the door. Ray Aug 13,...
What model jet? they make several models. I have a large Jet lathe that worked its butt off for 12 years with no problems. but then I have a HF $159 band saw...
The one for sale is an HVBS-463... About the exhaust systems, there's an unserved niche market for downpipes, replacement catalytic converters, and cat-back...
Ah, I build a couple a week...Chainsaw mufflers, lol. I sell via eBay under user name "Scottwojo." I build a muffler that others named the "Wojo" Muffler....
Ok, Has anyone besides me actually made the 6x6" table for use with the Green saws yet? I assumed that this plan was for a table that could be left on the saw...
Ok, I figured it out. The part that holds the 1/4" plate on is adjustable. And You have to keep cutting the plate till it fits. I kept grinding the part that...
Nice, looks like quite a little cottage industry you have going. I'll never do the volume you are doing (though the projects are admittedly larger), but I've...
Aaron, If your band saw has those flimsy legs like most do, check out the Lathe stand that Jet makes. I built a small frame that fits inside the casting that...
Scott. I made the small table for my HF red saw and it did take some tweaking to get it right. But I have since used it and it works fine. The castings on ...
Aaron. When you get to look at the green saw see if it was made in Taiwan. Being the proud owner of a Chinese "HF red" saw I think the green ones were of ...
I doubt I'll be looking at a green saw - my options at this point are the secondhand Jet or the new HF unit, which is red in their online ad. Curious to see...
Will do. I'm on the west coast though, and don't travel much, so I doubt we'll bump into each other any time soon...I wonder how useful I'd find that stand,...

Nope Aaron, but I have friends all over the World. Pleanty of folks over there that can help if you need it. Shipping? Its heavy, might be cheaper to get...
... Aaron, I think I would go look at the Jet. If it is in good condition I think I would offer 190.00, but have 220.00 in your wallet just in case. Scott....
Thanks Scott. I'll be packing more cash than that, as apparently the gal has a pretty good assortment of tools her late husband left behind last year, but...
