unusual bandsaw question
(Hey, this is a serious question so all sarcastic responses are
welcome) Has anyone ever turned their 14 inch bandsaw on its side to make it into a mini lumber mill, similar to the commercial units that are- or were- available? I'm thinking taking the table off would be advantageous (it's a 40+ year old Delta Rockwell machine) but I think some type of lower guard protection is necessary. On the other hand, maybe keeping the table would provide a sturdy and significant edge guide. Weight is not a factor as I have a very sturdy joist system to suspend this from and I thought this could be a cheap way to make boards from logs. Thanks in advance, Marc |
