Band Saw Outfeed Table, Version 2.0
by Dave Morris - Right after restoring my old Jet band saw, the first thing I wanted to do was resaw some usable wood from a pile of redwood slats that came from some old wine vats. They were curved in both length and width, and covered with years of crust. This would make the job both messy and dangerous on a tablesaw, plus a table saw did not have the necessary cutting height to resaw a slat is width. Hmmm, time to make a band saw outfeed table.

Bandsaw Belt Guard
New woodworking machines these days come with guards around the drive belts to protect the user from harm. But when you find a used machine it may no longer have one, if it ever did. It is quick and easy to make one if you have a band or scroll saw.

Bandsaw Mods, Jigs and Aids
The Bandsaw is an essential piece of equipment for cutting and preparing wood for the lathe and like most machines, particularly those at the budget end of the market, they do not always come with some of the more useful little additions which can make their use and set up that much easier. Here I describe just some of the modifications, Aids and jigs I have put together so that I can get the best out of my current bandsaw and also it is predecessor.
