Moving A Large Bandsaw
In the future, I will be needing to move a large 20" Rockwell bandsaw
cross country. In the past, it was wheeled on to a small trailer and relocated locally. I would be interested in hearing of anyone's suggestions as to how to prepare this saw for the cross country move. Assume that the saw is on wheels and no forklift or lift is available. If you have ever moved a large bandsaw, you soon realize that they are very top heavy and are prone to tipping. Other than removing the table to reduce weight and lower its center of gravity, there is little I can think of to alter this problem. Building a dolly and laying the saw on its side or side is one thought to reduce the center of gravity but this seems to be alot of trouble. I would also be interested in knowing how a bandsaw like this is shipped? Is it shipped standing vertically or horizontal? I would think vertically on a pallet. Thanks for any suggestions or advice.
