I bought a "Little Giant" cart from Craigslist that is capable of supporting some heavy weight.? ?It is 30" x 24" x 35" high (or close to it) and has swivel casters w/ locks on all four wheels.? ?I used 4 inch 5.4 lb/ft channel iron to raise the band saw above the top shelf on the cart.? ?I built some small blocks to bolt the saw down to the channel iron. ? The saw table height is 43¡±, which is a much better height for me. ? I never use this saw as a vertical bandsaw. ?All in all, it turned out fine.? ?
I'll be making a blade brush like the one Rob M designed and potentially add a blade lubrication device in the next week or so.? ?I've been thinking about how to use the part length stop guide hole to make an extended table on the front of the saw.
I noticed that the stand has caused my adjustments to change.? ?I want to get this saw stable before tackling the hinge rod modification so my saw cuts square (per John V's recent article).
