Thanks guys,
You answered my question.
I was really just making sure I wasn't missing out on actual plans for the tools I see built.
I've been building things off and on for almost 40 years. Starting with my father on the farm, then the oilpatch and at home. I've always hated buying things that can be made better and adjusted for my particular needs.
I'm setting up a medium sized machinist shop in my garage, and I'm hoping to build the bigger tools as I can. Prices in Canada are often much higher (adjusting for the dollar value difference,of course) than you folks in the USA get.
The bandsaw I was talking about looks extremely well made. Something comparable here is $2500-$4000. I'd much rather build my own, set up for my personal needs. I'm crippled up from a health crisis, so my needs are different than a regular functioning person too.
I'm definitely not a pro at anything, but I'm reasonably well versed in many areas of mechanics, machining and woodworking.
Like I said, I was making sure I wasn't missing out on this site.
And that young lady is extremely talented. Good to see some younger people actually doing things in the physical world and not just online.
Thanks again,
Ken
