Hey Steve, we are ALL sure missing you. I understand needing a break from the Tube. I am in the same position as you are. At any rate seeing these old gooduns is allways a nice way to spend some time with you. Take care eh.
Them bandsaws are sold by "Sealey"...and "Machine Mart" here in the UK Steve.... It's basically the same as "Harbour Freight" in the USA... They benefit from having a coolant system fitted... A leccy transfer pump would do it... And weld a tray up out of a bit of 1.5mm sheet.... Are you going to TIG that blade back together and grind it flush...? 🇬🇧👍
I've had mine for almost 13 years, I bought it at Northern Tool here in the US. Lots of people call them the "Bandsaw Everybody Buys" and it's true. I just picked up a do-all C4 to rebuild, otherwise I'd replace it with another one.
I too have a Horror Freight Bandsaw just like Steve's (my 2nd one) This 2nd one has been nothing but a pain in the ass. I mean it cuts great, mostly because I run nothing but Starrett Blades on my Bandsaws. However, I spend so much time "truing" this thing. Keeping the Blade "trued" is unbelievably time consuming. Can't wait to find a good deal on a Quality Horizontal Band Saw. I have a line on a great deal for a Vertical that I am working right now. A DoAll 3612-H, this a 3phase Monster of a Saw. 36" throat with Hydraulic Table Feed.
I love watching you (and others) revive old equipment. Doing that is really the only way I can afford to have any machine tools. On a similar note, I've been pretty happy with my little HF bandsaw. Works for what I do, but at first I had a problem with it breaking blades, which I heard quite often about them. Found a flat spot in the idler wheel so trued it up on the lathe. Got better, but still would break a blade too often. Found the camber adjustment of the idler wheel was off quite a bit due to a poorly shaped adjustment block. Hasn't broken a blade since adjusting that with a file. If you consider that price-point of tool as a 'preassembled set of parts' you can usually tweak them to get quite serviceable equipment - very similar to buying really old equipment.
Hi Steve and Elizabeth, great to see you in the workshop together, oh! and peanut, congrats on the 30k , you deserve it.This was another interesting installment in the bandsaw rebuild, can't wait to see it running. Best wishes to all, and have a great Christmas, Stuart uk.
Steve you have made a bloody good job of that hub, it's probably better than the original. Congrats on your 30 000 subscribers, I've been one for more than a year now. I love watching your channel, and your beautiful Kentucky countryside.
New to the channel, looks like good stuff! Most all of the machinery I've seen that uses oiled bronze bushings, has spiral oil grooves. Following that lead, I always add the feature, using a ball end burr. This feature does two things: 1) It gives the oil a place from which to distribute evenly around the shaft. 2) I gives small foreign particles a place to escape, as they will inevitably enter the interface (probably from the bushing itself). Both of these attributes increase the life of the bushings and the shaft. Many off the shelf bushings already include the feature.
I just finished watching all your videos from you first to your latest and i find the interesting and educational thank you so much for putting all the time so I and others could enjoy them.
Steve, Congrats on the 30K subs ! It was nice to see Elizabeth, Peanut and the water running in the creek again ! I too said to my self, that's the wrong measurement when you wrote it on that piece of stock. But I new you would catch it, Ive been watching your channel for a long time now ! Thanks for all your hard work in the making of these videos, really love watching them and have learned a lot !!! Merry Christmas to you and your whole family. God bless you all.
I haven't mastered the Tony quick-cut punch either, we're in the same boat. Very cool to see this machine coming back together now, like you say it will be very useful for larger stuff like that piece of stainless. The little units can eventually do it, and it sure beats a hack saw, but that new saw will definitely be handy at times.
I am enjoying following this project. I did notice the clicking sound everytime the bandsaw blade passes the weld. So I wasn't surprised when it broke. I use a Starrett 18TPI blades for hard alloys and stainless. Not cheap at around $35, but they last a very long time.
Great work again, Steve. I am hoping that the 316 was just the only suitably sized material you had available. That's about the last stuff I would want to have to machine, but I know we use what we've got!
With regard to keeping swarf out of the rollers on your steady rest, when Abom was at Motion Industries, he used to use some sort of gasket paper to keep the trash out.
Steve, when you mentioned about a piece of plastic to keep chips from getting under the wheels of your steady rest support you might want to try of all things paper plates I have in the past used both the thin and thick plates with success but prefer the heavier paper plates. I use a compass or circle template if I use a razor knife and have over time collected a bunch of 1 to 2 inch pieces of thin wall tubing I have sharpened on a belt sander to use a stamp and cut the desired hole size. Additionally keep any freebie or very cheap frisbee that you might come across they have many uses from putting under things that are slowly dripping, or small parts trays and or chip guards which is what I used them for before switching to paper plates. Lastly if you want to hold the plates in place I generally use tape or some times magnets but mostly tape if I use anything at all sometimes magnets can fly if bumped.
That’s an interesting press. I’ve been watching a bunch of videos because I’m about to build my own but now seeing yours I have a lot more decisions to make. I love the threaded rods that raise and lower your platform height. I’d love to have something like that on mine.
Wow - always learn something new. Using a hardened screw to deburr the groove. Thanks for that one ! I have been using a round file but it tends to load up pretty fast and leave a not so good result behind.
i admire your tenacity Steve.. working with the scourge of any machine shop (stainless) you gotta throw the coolant in copious amounts to it.. even on the saw. that stuff is killer on tooling.. as you well know. normally i run the mixture 4 times thicker than the manufacturer suggests. in the past i would mix it as recommended but wasn't getting a good finish on the stock. once i lowered the amount of water in the mixture it started yielding some good results.
I am only catching up on this project, but I think I remember the oil comes into the shaft on one end, Steve, because of the hardness of the material and the depth of cut didn't run the oil port down the shaft the entire way. He has two different oil chambers that now require oil to be fed from both sides. The shaft originally had an oil can that gravity oil to the shaft and then to the bushing. I am sure that he finds this in one of these episodes.
Don’t know if it matters, but when I use a telescoping gage, I place the spindle more or less vertically in the bore rather than horizontal. A piece of cardboard with a hole in it would probably work for chip protection with your steady rest. I’d say if you measure the tooth width on your broach you will find .375” give or take whereas the body that fits the bushing is slightly wider as you found.
Steve, new Sub here thanks to the Abom79's Shop Tour Video he did at your Shop. I live in Virginia, but was born and raised in the Hills of Eastern Ky. (Louisa) This was the 1st Video of tours that I watched after subscribing less than an hour ago. Great Video, and Camera work. I am just getting into Machining myself. I am hunting for a good deal on my 1st 2 Machines now. Looking for a Mill and a Lathe. I just found a great deal on a Doall Bandsaw about 2 hours from home, that I hope to make mine in the next few days. Hope you've had a Merry Christmas. I will be "Binge Watching" your channel tonight, looking to learn a lot more. Thanks
Thanks very much, Steve. I come for the machine work and I stay for the squirrel. My dog is named Peanut, but I fear that he wouldn't feel friendly to your Peanut..
One thing I did to that bandsaw was add a zero clearance insert where the blade rests. I used a plastic cutting board. Keeps the pressure down when you get close to the bottom of the cut.Also seems to clear chips from the blade. Great content sir!
I’m impressed with the workmanship that your putting into saw. The little HF saw is handy especially if you don’t have a saw. On the blades for my saw, I get my blades from Amazon and make sure I have at least a back up on both of my saws. To me it’s frustrating to have a blade to break like in the video and not have a spare
mayaknife most people already know it but don't bother to use it unless required to. I learned metric as well as imperial in 3rd grade, and that was in 1975!
My wife stands on a small pallet to run the Bridgeport. Elizabeth might want to put her hair up when she's around machines. Also from a poor bastards whose made too many broach bushings......set the depth zero at the broaches cutting width (.375 wide flat), then go the measurement of the very end of the broach in depth. You know you hit it right if the broach stops on the first tooth when starting to cut the keyway. I'm new here, and I am impressed!
Like Tom Selleck said in Quigley Down Under, "I don't know where we're going, but we're making good time." Some great machine work have gone into the shaft and bearing hub. You are as bad as me at short term memory. LOL I want to yell, but I knew you would figure it out before cutting. Don't leave us hanging!!! Congratulations on hitting 30K!
I have the vertical head on the K&T at the moment. It's more work to remove it than it was just to cut the slot on the small mill. I thought about it 😁. Would have been a good job for it.
Another very informative video Steve and thank you for sharing all the incidental information, particularly the bit about bandsaw speeds. I have a hobby bandsaw intended primarily for wood, which has a 'metal' setting of around 400fpm. I use good quality M42 blades (£25 at time) and cut most metals, including tool steel (ground flat stock) with lubrication.
Great video, awesome content. Beautiful machine work, nature view, shop mascot peanut, but you may need to get your wife a step stool for the press. Thanks for sharing.
Congrats on the 30,000. That's a pretty good milestone with more to come. Thanks for the great content, it helps keep my mind moving since I can't always be in my shop. I'm retired and disabled from cancer and sometimes just can't get around very well anymore. Cheers
I've always struggled getting what I think is an accurate measurement of a bore using telescope a gage. One other way of measuring a bore is to use an appropriate sized adjustable parallel. Open the parallel until it fits closely in the bore and, using an ordinary micrometer, measure across the diagonal edges of the exposed portion of the parallel.
Steve, a DoAll just like your work saw was just listed on FaceBook about a week ago near me for $350!! Working!!! It was the day before my ankle replacement or I would have bought that sucker!!!
You do good work Steve. Your parts always seem to fit smoothly. I have a small band saw like yours. Mine happens to be an old USA made one but it’s the same design. I can always tell when my blade is about to pop. It will start hopping more and more. I save all my sharp broken blades. One of these days I’m gonna fire up the Tig and try to weld ‘me.
Yell us about your work please Also note that i have a large. Do all vertical band saw like yours, 20” w/ blade cutter, grinder, welder. Love it And usual horiz. Band saw, air operated up down and feed from feed table. Bridgeport vertical mill and small Atlas lathe. Still trying to get more like shear, brake, roller. Sold large drill press and Blanchard grinder
Hola meu amigo excelente trabalho,e sempre que possível estou aqui para aprender um pouco com seus trabalhos!Gostaria muito de morar onde vocês moram é muito tranquilo!Saudações,João Carlos - Brasil.
Hiya all, The Noel & Peanut Show... plus some other stuff... Great video Steve, thank you. Great to have your co-hosts as well, missed them. Have you pre jinxed yourself or just layed down the battle lines, "Just tap the ends"? Can't wait to see, but some very fine machining this week as all ways, I love the closer close ups very well done, crisp and clear. So all in all typical of your work, perfect videoing and engineering, thank you all.
Hi Steve ! How about that other shop that occasionally we saw ? In this video have a shot made there . Can you tell about? I was amazed that the other shot when you show to us that part printed in steel that you soldered a base using a TIG that you show to us a device to Sharpen the tungsten wire I love your work. Always learn with you. Greetings from Belo Horizonte, Brazil !!!
Steve & Elizabeth, Great video & content, I’m really enjoying this restoring of your Do all saw, like the squirrel antics, thanks for sharing.!.!.!.
Hey Steve, we are ALL sure missing you. I understand needing a break from the Tube. I am in the same position as you are. At any rate seeing these old gooduns is allways a nice way to spend some time with you. Take care eh.
Love to see the family teamwork Steve, not forgetting Peanut of course! Best Regards to you all Sarah

Unlike probably a lot of people who watch.....Bob is actually my Mom's brother ;) I have really enjoyed this series of videos on the saw restoration.

I had a squirrel in my shop once, but it was DEAD! My shop cat killed it. Nice shop and I enjoyed watching the video. I came for the squirrel.
Love Peanut! Thanks to you both for your care.
You are a credit to the profession. Enjoyed this segment😉
Steve you have made a bloody good job of that hub, it's probably better than the original. Congrats on your 30 000 subscribers, I've been one for more than a year now. I love watching your channel, and your beautiful Kentucky countryside.
Congrats on 30K! That bandsaw will own you by the time you get it done!
Great jobs and videos mate. Nice to see you and your wife working together. All the best from Australia

Always love seeing a machine saved even if it is not a worth the cost. That's a good machine and probably better built than most things made nowadays.
Great work again, Steve. I am hoping that the 316 was just the only suitably sized material you had available. That's about the last stuff I would want to have to machine, but I know we use what we've got!
With regard to keeping swarf out of the rollers on your steady rest, when Abom was at Motion Industries, he used to use some sort of gasket paper to keep the trash out.
Mount one of those adjustable air nozzles, like they use for mist cooling, with a mag base to blow the swarf away from your steady rest.
Steve, when you mentioned about a piece of plastic to keep chips from getting under the wheels of your steady rest support you might want to try of all things paper plates I have in the past used both the thin and thick plates with success but prefer the heavier paper plates.

Niagara cutting tools are awesome in my opinion.
Wow - always learn something new. Using a hardened screw to deburr the groove. Thanks for that one !
I have been using a round file but it tends to load up pretty fast and leave a not so good result behind.
You are a very good machinist Steve,
@28:15 "Bob is your mom's brother"😆. Not sure why that cracks me up, but it sure does. Great vid as usual Steve.
i admire your tenacity Steve.. working with the scourge of any machine shop (stainless) you gotta throw the coolant in copious amounts to it.. even on the saw. that stuff is killer on tooling.. as you well know.
normally i run the mixture 4 times thicker than the manufacturer suggests. in the past i would mix it as recommended but wasn't getting a good finish on the stock. once i lowered the amount of water in the mixture it started yielding some good results.
Adam Booth used sheets of gasket material to protect the steady rest. Trimmed to size, hole for the job, and held on with magnets.
I would think poster bord would work too
John Berscheid I think poster board would be even better!!!
I am only catching up on this project, but I think I remember the oil comes into the shaft on one end, Steve, because of the hardness of the material and the depth of cut didn't run the oil port down the shaft the entire way.

I am sure that he finds this in one of these episodes.
I was telling at the screen "You transposed the digits". Two seconds later you caught it. I wiped the sweat off my forehead.😆
That was a close one. It's easy to do.
I did the same thing... "Nooooooooooo Steve!!"
We have had a lot of rain here also. Its delaying my shop build. 30K nice!
Don’t know if it matters, but when I use a telescoping gage, I place the spindle more or less vertically in the bore rather than horizontal. A piece of cardboard with a hole in it would probably work for chip protection with your steady rest. I’d say if you measure the tooth width on your broach you will find .375” give or take whereas the body that fits the bushing is slightly wider as you found.
You need to get a Digital Readout for your K&T Mill. Ask you Patrion supporters. That saw is a wonderful project. It needed so many improvements!
When you're done you will have a better condition saw than you could ever buy for what you'll have in it. Looking great. Thanks for sharing
Shop squirrel is so cute
Great video, love the squirrel, Lol.
.381 may allow some side clearance for a 3/8 broach. I’m guessing but it seems right.
Thanks,
John
Steve; As always it's been a pleasure watching you on the rebuilding of the Do-All bandsaw. It will be great to see it in action!

One of your better shows yet. Thanks for sharing Steve
And as to 30,000 it could not have happened to a nicer guy.
Take care all.
Good job Elizabeth 😊👌🏻
"Is it perfect? Yes!" - I laughed pretty loudly at that.
Kudos to you for putting in the effort to learn the metric system.
mayaknife most people already know it but don't bother to use it unless required to. I learned metric as well as imperial in 3rd grade, and that was in 1975!
Congrats on the 30k milestone (48.28k Kilometerstone for the metric viewers)

I got tickled thinking about the old Ray Stevens song about the squirrel going berserk in a church. Thanks for your time and great work!
Like the little jack in the vise.. People don't realize how much stress is put on one side of the vice otherwise.. Mike in Louisiana
Like Tom Selleck said in Quigley Down Under, "I don't know where we're going, but we're making good time." Some great machine work have gone into the shaft and bearing hub. You are as bad as me at short term memory. LOL I want to yell, but I knew you would figure it out before cutting. Don't leave us hanging!!! Congratulations on hitting 30K!
Absolutely amazing thanks for sharing your skills.
For some reason I love that river
You are truly an inspiration thanks Steve
Nice build of the broach guide Steve, looking forward to the cutting action.
Thanks for sharing your craft,
Cheers
The slot looked like a job for the horizontal K&T, slot in one pass. But I understand wanting to try the freebie cutters.
I have the vertical head on the K&T at the moment. It's more work to remove it than it was just to cut the slot on the small mill. I thought about it 😁. Would have been a good job for it.
My wife and I absolutely LOVE the cameo of Peanut the Squirrel with your wife Elizabeth.
Guy at work just taped some sheets of paper with a hole for the stock to the steady rest to keep chips out.
Tell us a little about the 'push up stick lube" and its purpose /properties/ at 18.40. I have not heard of such a thing for cutting.
Great idea with the machinist vise bud!
Finally finished with harvest and had to catch up with your videos! Great video Steve!!!
Another very informative video Steve and thank you for sharing all the incidental information, particularly the bit about bandsaw speeds. I have a hobby bandsaw intended primarily for wood, which has a 'metal' setting of around 400fpm. I use good quality M42 blades (£25 at time) and cut most metals, including tool steel (ground flat stock) with lubrication.
Congratulations on 30k subscribers Steve, they are well deserved.
You're a lucky guy.
First. Thank this sore knee for having me up this early. At least I have something fun to watch. Thanks for posting Steve.
LoL. Good morning👍.
Excellent work on the hollow shaft and inner Shaft. Great video.
Thanks for sharing.
I hadn't thought of using a machinist jack in the vice. Thanks for the tip. The best ones seem obvious once you see them.
Steve, congratulations on 30,000 Gary
Great video, awesome content. Beautiful machine work, nature view, shop mascot peanut, but you may need to get your wife a step stool for the press. Thanks for sharing.
Sir Very Nice and Patient workmanship. Thanks for teaching us. Greetings to you and your family from New Delhi, India
Real nice work. Thank you
Congrats on the 30,000. That's a pretty good milestone with more to come. Thanks for the great content, it helps keep my mind moving since I can't always be in my shop. I'm retired and disabled from cancer and sometimes just can't get around very well anymore.
Cheers
Try cardboard cut tightly around the part to protect the steady rest.
I've always struggled getting what I think is an accurate measurement of a bore using telescope a gage. One other way of measuring a bore is to use an appropriate sized adjustable parallel. Open the parallel until it fits closely in the bore and, using an ordinary micrometer, measure across the diagonal edges of the exposed portion of the parallel.
Steve, a DoAll just like your work saw was just listed on FaceBook about a week ago near me for $350!! Working!!! It was the day before my ankle replacement or I would have bought that sucker!!!
Can you cut from left to right ? I enjoy your show immensely .
You do good work Steve. Your parts always seem to fit smoothly. I have a small band saw like yours. Mine happens to be an old USA made one but it’s the same design. I can always tell when my blade is about to pop. It will start hopping more and more. I save all my sharp broken blades. One of these days I’m gonna fire up the Tig and try to weld ‘me.
Thanks for the video .
Man I love the color of bronze and brass. So shiny....
Looking forward to that old saw making cuts.
Yell us about your work please
Also note that i have a large. Do all vertical band saw like yours, 20” w/ blade cutter, grinder, welder. Love it
And usual horiz. Band saw, air operated up down and feed from feed table.
Bridgeport vertical mill and small Atlas lathe. Still trying to get more like shear, brake, roller. Sold large drill press and Blanchard grinder
Awesome job , best channel on RUclips. Love the project and looking forward to the progress.
I'm surprised that you dont separate the bronze chips from the in this case stainless swarf. The bronze have value the steel ones not so much.
Why aren't you using the big mill? convenience?
You might try a paper plate? just cut a hole in it and slide it over the shaft
Looking good steve, really enjoying the series ....that saw going to run great !
Hola meu amigo excelente trabalho,e sempre que possível estou aqui para aprender um pouco com seus trabalhos!Gostaria muito de morar onde vocês moram é muito tranquilo!Saudações,João Carlos - Brasil.
1.497. Not 1.947. Thanks for a good video. I'm on your side of the pond at the moment. I'm working on a ship near Mobile, Alabama.
Awesome 👍
I love watching a master at work,. i am learning so many things watching you.
Hiya all, The Noel & Peanut Show... plus some other stuff...

I love your work. Always learn with you.
Greetings from Belo Horizonte, Brazil !!!
Never heard the story on how you came across your lathe Steve?
