Introduction: BandSaw Modification for a Streching Belt
This model of BandSaw seems to have stretching problem, probably do to it's 3 wheel configuration,
So this is like a secondary saw, Don't want to spend any thing on it at the moment,
My solution is to had 2 pulley, both made from 4 Rollerblade bearing, This model has a wide Belt,
Drilling 2 hole in the cast iron casing, did not hurt it at all, :)
Supplies
So I need 8 bearing, That's one pair of used Rollerblade, (Yard sale)
2 long bolt, and some washer..
That's it,
Drill and ratchet, :)
Step 1: First Try, One Pulley, Was Not Enough,
Step 2: 2nd Try, 2 Inside Pulley, No, Not Working, Belt Does Not Stay in Place,
Step 3: 3rd Try, One Inside Ans One Outside Pulley,
Step 4: Look at It Roll. :)
Step 5:
Tank's for watching,
Revain :)
