    I have seen dedicated slide tables on band saws in the manufacturing world and have wondered why they haven't made they way to the garage woodworkers shop. Honestly this might be the best upgrade to a band saw i have ever done. there will be more upgrades and how to videos to come with bandsaw slide table

    Put this at the top of the list of 'Things I never knew I needed but now I must have'. This is amazing.

    Actually this is perhaps the most exciting video I’ve seen from you. I can visualize having something like this in my shop and some of the things it could do. The idea is outstanding.

    Its always fun to see how you take a tool and make it do more. It seems like this just makes many of those operations not only easier but safer. I’m calling it the Izzy factor!! Sweet.

    Absolutely brilliant - a video series in itself starting with how to build a sliding table for bandsaws that don't have them available as an accessory. Your design thinking is amazing, I can almost hear the cogs grinding. BB

  • @MaydaysCustomWoodworks
    @MaydaysCustomWoodworks 5 лет назад +25

    Beautiful. I use my bandsaw for as much as possible. Blades last longer due to more teeth, hardly ever need to be cleaned. Its a safer tool than the table saw and a good bandsaw with a good blade can cut things just as fast.
    I do as much of my lumber milling on the bandsaw as i can then run it through the helical head planer on the side.
    I've been thinking of putting a sliding table on my table saw and bandsaw for a while. Thanks for the video!

    It is a lot of fun to see you get excited about something like this. I was about to comment that I don't have room in my one car garage to add a lot of bulk to my bandsaw and then you said I could get rid of my cheap, lousy floor hogging jointer (brand will go unnamed). Hmmm.... have to rethink the idea. Darn you! Somehow I know that means more money invested in my shop - somebody help me with my addiction to wanting to have everything Izzy has!

  • @NSResponder
    @NSResponder 4 месяца назад

    Something I've had in mind for a while is a slide with a pivot so that you can cut perfect circles and arcs for tabletops on the bandsaw. Entry cut would be tangent to the arc you want, so you push the work into the blade, until the slide hits a stop, and then you pivot the work. I'm thinking the pivot should incorporate a vacuum hold-down (could just be a 2" branch from your dust collection system) so that you don't need a screw or pin driven into the work.
    A variant on this would allow you to quickly saw rough stock into cylinders (or cones) for lathe work rather than having to start with a dangerously off-balance piece of material that will beat your hands up as you round it with a gouge.
