DoAll Vertical bandsaw help please
Everybody,
I have a DoAll 16 inch bandfiler that someone converted to a band saw. It needs new tires which I have and am replacing this weekend. But there is a larger problem with the table that needs correcting. The table doesn't have the replaceable plate that all vertical bansaws have that when popped out of the table allows easy blade replacement. So I need to machine a recess for this disc and would love to see a dimensioned picture of a 16" bandsaw table to see where the plate goes. The outside dimensions or diameter and thickness of the plate would be nice too. Can anyone help? You can send me an email, I always post with my real address. Thanks a Bunch, Eric |

Thanks a Bunch, Eric I think it's a disk only to permit milling the recess in the table with a boring head or shell mill. On my wood bandsaw a roll pin at one edge keeps it from rotating. Before you saw the slot in the table, you could drill and tap horizontally into the edge for a setscrew, centered where it will be. By engaging both sides the setscrew restores some of the stiffness lost to the cut. --jsw |
