In 1968 I bought a used Delta band saw for cutting wood. I used it some, not
a lot. One day I put a jack shaft on it and a couple of pulleys and by
changing the belt over, it would run slow or fast and through the years I
cut a lot of metal with it. I always just blew the dust and debris off
from time to time with my air compressor... After many years the motor
failed, it had inhaled way too much aluminum and metal dust. I was able to
rebuild it and it wasn't that expensive, but a simple little cover over the
motor made of about anything might have prevented that from happening.
Merry Christmas Paul, enjoy your new band saw. I don't know what I would do
without mine...... Lynn

Marry Christmas everyone!
Did anyone get a $25 Home Depot gift card and would like to swap for
a Lowes card. I'm trying to consolidate all my cards to Home Depot so I can
get a band saw for all my aluminum cutting.
