As about a dozen people mentioned the last time you posted this, get
them as spare parts from Harbor Freight and make some minor mods to get them to fit.

Needed: Bandsaw Table Trunnions
But as usual, you omit pertinent details: Like exactly what parts you
need and what options you might have investigated. But from what I see, you could order ALL the table parts for almost any of the HF units and bolt them to your frame. It's when you insist on trying to match something that you run into trouble. If you want, I use a machine tool repair/rebuilder that would be glad to machine up anything you want. Plan on about $95 an hour for their services.

Needed: Bandsaw Table Trunnions
The question was simple. I asked if anyone knew where I could get
trunnions made for a bandsaw table... I don't know whether or not the proper size trunnions can be machined from existing ones or not. I never received that catalog from Harbor Freight, or responses to my e-mails. Calling them is not an option because I'm at work during their business hours and there are no HarborFreight stores anywhere near me. And I couldn't find any what I was looking for at the site. I donwloaded the only manual there for a 14" bandsaw, but until I can speak with someone at the company, I cannot go any further. Darren Harris Staten Island, New York.

Darren Harris Staten Island, New York.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Darren, I didn't follow previous thread, so this may be a repeat. http://www.emachineshop.com/ Gives you the CAD software, and will return parts, at (what I have heard) is a reasonable price. I don't see the lower blade guide in your pictures, do you need that too? If you need somebody to make the drawings, (so parts can be fabricated), then they will need the entire machine, so they can align the blade with the table. I hope this is not a sentimental tool.

As usual, you neglected to give information that might help someone give
you a hand. Shrug. Searcher7 wrote: The question was simple. I asked if anyone knew where I could get trunnions made for a bandsaw table...

Darren Harris Staten Island, New York. Try contacting Black&Decker thru this link to locate a service center close to you. http://www.dewaltservicenet.com/ Then request a parts catalog for a Delta 14" bandsaw. The pieces you have in the photos are very similiar to the Delta's. The trunions and many other parts are still supported. You may even be able to order a table. More than likely it will be off. The trunions are made of pot metal and are easy to modify. Let the guy behind the counter know what your trying to do or you may get parts of no use to you. Good Hunting Jim Vrzal Holiday,Fl. |

They do not have a catalog. Everything is done on the web(according to the sale rep I spoke with). I located a service center, but since today is one of those rare(annual) days that I don't have to work on a weekday, I'd have to find out what I'd need and get there before closing(5pm). In other words, I'll have to find out what I'd need and order the parts if they do mail order. Thanks again. Darren Harris Staten Island, New York. |
