FRANKENSAW
.

Horizontal/vertical bandsaws take up more space than I have available so I removed the saw from its base and mounted it vertically using an old engine stand for the base. I had to add some bracing and extended the blade guides to get them closer to the table whicch was replaces with 1/2' steel plate.

 

To free up even more room I removed my small band saw from its base also and using the vise ends from the larger saw as brackets I mounted the smaller saw onto the larger one. It's two saws in one.
