jack English machine Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 Got this idea that there should be guilds for the blade right at the table on the Bandsaw . The guilds are made from ammco 18 bearing bronze and you see these on very top end blade guilds. here is the build hope you enjoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handle on the older Wadkin Kit were made from buffalo horn so the tradition of decorating our tools go way back . think Studley chest https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_O._Studley here is the tilting table i made for the mortiser with black wood and ebony table saw tenon fence rosewood I have made others if you want to see more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdwerker Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Those are some beautiful additions to your machines ! I'm afraid the parts would be too small for me to make a bandsaw guide like yours to fit my 14" Rockwell/Delta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown craftsman Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 I like it and think it's neat. When you Resaw don't you get a bunch of wood fibers that get trapped behind the blade?Might need a modification.Both my saws have this happen sometimes it makes it hard to push and wonder if it affects a good cut. I will call it the Resaw bird nest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
