Horizontal metal bandsaw
This is my horizontal bandsaw for cutting metal
I used 250mm (10inch) polyamide (nylon) wheels because it was easier and cheaper to obtain and fabricate, (they needed to be turned on the lathe anyway)
I was going to make a whole hydraulic installation like in a commercially made bandsaw but then I tried this jack from my engine hoist and that's how it actually remained to this day :rolleyes:
cutting capacity 190mm round or 300x125mm box

Nice job. I am planning on making a large draw cut saw.

Nice work! We'll get this indexed and added to the encyclopedia on Monday.

Nicely done radom. What motor did you use?
-
thanks,
motor is 3phase 0,55kw (3/4hp) 920rpm
with v-belt pulleys and 1:10 worm drive blade speed is either 70m/min or 35m/min

I'm working one one as well, so It's good to see how others build/fabricate... Thanks for sharing your ideas/work.

The use of the engine hoist cylinder is a great alternative to what you originally planned.

Hi Radom, great work, do you have any plans/ blueprints?
