Re: Duracraft 4x7 bandsaw

It looks similar to the sliding bracket, just shorter, and with a drilled & tapped hole instead of the long slot.
Like this:
Or this:

One of those might even fit. Jet would be most likely, as they are made in Taiwan like the Duracrafts were.
You may want to check Rong Fu. They build a lot of stuff for Jet.
Pricey little critter from ereplacementparts. Same assy on the Jet website is $140.86¡.yikes¡.even worse! ?
Be worth a call to Horror Freight, to see what the prices are for their parts, and if they have stock. (800-444-3353)
?
If you have a welder, and a lathe & mill would make things easy¡.you could build all the parts, other than the bearings of course.
For the part that the bearings mount to, it would be easy enough to measure what you have for the upper.
The shoulder bolts that hold the two side bearings are on eccentrics, so a little lathe work is required.
?
Somewhere for you to start anyway¡

Subject: [4x6bandsaw] Duracraft 4x7 bandsaw
?
Hello everyone, I¡¯m new to the group. Out here in Sacramento, CA. So I picked up this old boy a week ago for $20. Yeah I know, it¡¯s a 4x7 and not a 4x6, but its the same saw basically. The motor is solid, the main parts are here, just dirty
and in need of a minor restore. It is however, missing the lower bearing bracket assembly. I included photos of the upper assembly. I have been looking and there is so little info out there on the specific bandsaw. I¡¯m planning on building this bracket assembly,
mostly because I cant find a source for a replacement, but I¡¯m not even sure how it is supposed to look, let alone the dimensions. Is it just a flipped version of the top assembly? If anyone has any info on this, I would greatly appreciate it.?
Duracraft HBS-347
