In Response To: Oh no... not you too! (Andy in Sk)

Mine is an American lf.ood Working Machine's bandsaw. I have wanted one for a while and it sort of found me. I had bought a 12" jointer and was due to be delivered in just a couple of weeks when this one came along. I wasn't looking as the jointer was a Major project. But you never say no when they come along, just say thank you and smile!

I was looking for vintage motor and found the 5hp that is on it. Plus I found a VERY old one for my jointer. Both 3 phase so I just went through the Phase Converter build myself.

Bandsaw just need tires installed and crowned. And I need thrust bearings for the guides and it will be ready to go. Well some blades too of course. Hoping to get back to it just after Christmas.
