back on the bandsaw repair:
I've fully quantified just how cursed this arbor is. the hole in the back was drilled at a slight angle, this is the hole that slips onto the motor shaft, so the arbor has a wobble.
The threaded hole that accepts a bolt & washer to hold the wheel on is straight, but drilled in the center of the bottom of the angled hole, so it's offset.
I did a small test wheel attempting to counteract for these shenanigans, and it mostly worked.
I'm gonna try it on a full size print next. We'll see what it looks like in the morning!

OK, this is pretty unhinged, but I managed to print a replacement wheel for my bandsaw that came without the high speed drive wheel.
While “it works”, I’m going to have this either machined or printed out of a more suitable material, because running this for any length of time to actually do work seems like A Bad Idea™️
The arbor that it sits on is somewhat cursed. It’s used for the low speed settings, but the hole for the shaft is not straight, causing it to wobble. The extra credit assignment would be to counter that in the drive wheel design

A $50 bandsaw is never a $50 dollar bandsaw. Oh sure, you may have paid $50 for it (proudly telling your wife the same), but now it needs new tires, and a stand, and oh look, it's set up for metal, and missing the wood drive wheel...
It's in real good shape otherwise!Anyone happen to have a Delta 28-560 bandsaw that could take a measurement for me?

So, ein weiteres Langzeitprojekt findet langsam sein Ende.
Eine Horizontalbandsäge zum Aufschneiden von Baumstämmen für meine Drechselarbeiten.
Angetrieben von einem 3 PS Motor, mit drei Fensterhebermotoren zur Höhenverstellung des Bandes.
An der Bandführung werde ich noch etwas arbeiten müssen und die Zuleitung wird noch durch ein Anschlusskabel mit 2,5 mm2 ersetzt.
Danach lackieren und der erste Probelauf kann starten.

🪵 Made a tiny 3D wombat from scrap timber using my bandsaw!
Couldn’t find a template, so I made my own. Asked ChatGPT for front and side views of a wombat, resized them in Affinity Photo to about 2 cm x 3 cm, then printed and glued to the wood.
Cut one side with a 3 mm blade, taped it back together, cut the other, then shaped and sanded it with a Dremel.
Pretty happy with how it turned out! 🐾

I'm excited to have borrowed a small bench top bandsaw, this saves me from buying one, and forces me to find a project to do to make the borrowing worth while.
I've been using a bench top jig saw for this type of work mostly, I'm eager to see how nice it is to be able to resaw with a bandsaw. Not sure this will really serve that purpose, but I'm sure it will be handy.
First task, to build or find a small stand for it.

Put the band saw on wheels today. No more scooting it around like it's a square barrel and it can stay out of the way against the wall. Almost 5 inches taller but that's a good thing for me.
Cheap 2-inch locking casters rated at 150 lbs each. $10 for 4 of them and the quality is actually pretty good. Sealed skate bearings and directional lock too.
