From the last related session with the stand on the floor (with castors) I could see that it ended up to high and needs to be lowered – say 100-150mm.
Not to worry – I’ll just lower the boards so the top edge is 33mm from the underside of the stand top.
Continued on adding the four ‘legs’ that are not really legs but rather corner supports. Continue reading “14” Bandsaw – Saw stand 2”
At this stage with the heavy saw mostly completed and still sitting on the low table it’s time to make a sturdy stand with castors so I can move it around.
Found some timber at the back of the workshop that used to a potting bench. There’s enough there to get started and although a bit weathered will be fine with a clean-up.
Betty is our Garmin nuvi 2597LMT GPS that we bought off our older daughter a few years ago. The battery has been showing signs of dying so got a replacement one off eBay for less than $15 dollars. Battery arrived weeks ago and been sitting on the balcony computer desk and when I finally got around to doing the job could not find the bloody thing.
Tiny Torx screws !…do I have bits that small? Took a while to remember that we bought something like a precision bit set from a walkway trader at Chinatown (The Glen) – found it in the workshop.
House cleaning today plus need to get the green bin ready for collection.
So we’ll do a small job and add some more bracing.
We will make the wheel covers from thin MDF with pine frames.
With the left blade guard done we should now doo the right side.
As with the left we’ll use another bit of left over trim from the Colorbond garage construction. I’m planning to use two narrow lengths of MDF to secure the guard to the blade guide arm.
To make sure it’s working wired the lamp to a transformer – OK
In this session we will make the lamp socket.
Laying out the lamp connector socket, the MDF is just the right thickness.
From the previous related post on this with the lamp fitted into the front of the can we can now make the base.
Marked out the base on a piece of MDF.
