Hi Ken

Looking for details as to how to add hydraulic downfeed to a horizontal bandsaw. I just bought a Harbor Freight 4x6 saw and want to "gussie it up" a bit. The Craftsman Commercial saw my dad had when I was growing up had one, and it worked great.

I've seen some links for such a project but am really looking more for a "bolt-on" solution. Don't have any background on hydraulics for "home-brewing" this one.
