Fully Functional Homemade 16-inch Bandsaw

Maker Faire Bay Area 2019

May 17th-19th

Exhibit Wood and Metal Working

Powered by a repurposed 1-3/4 hp chop saw motor, the bandsaw has a 16" throat, and a 12" resaw. Completely homemade and designed by me, the bandsaw is built from pine 2x4s and oak (and metal hardware costing >$90), and countless frustrating weekends.
