Read my pm I sent ya....lol

where did ya get them mate.

i need a nother spare time project now iv finished my triler, well not finished but got to a point where i can use it.

ill put it on the list.

fix red truck
finish boat
build mil shed
build timber storage shed
do up old jeep
build sailing dingy
build bandsaw

well Jeep sounds ok depending on just how old it is. Every man needs a boat an a chain saw. Millshed will be over rated unless there s a beer fridge and BBQ.The red truck it depends how old it is too but a sailing dingy
Any way I paid $17 US for em on flea bay with no copy right as you can see by the pictures its pretty Amateur bit like that brand x mill

just spent 3 hours designing a bandmill and lost it.

shoulda frigin saved it.

ill re do it when im not so anoyed.

Has anyone actually made this saw from the plans?

That's very generous of you. They look pretty good.

I bought the plans of EvilBay some years ago, but never made it - the 15Hp motor was my problem

This is quite an old post and recently spotted by Whitworthsocket. There is no reason why it wouldn't work as the bandsaw mills follow a fairly similar pattern.

I would comment that the guarding is very inadequate as it exists, but the plans do allude to further guarding being necessary. The most expensive component is the motor as almost everything else can be scraped and scrounged. The V-twin B & S motors are a treat, but fairly pricey. I think they would be around $2500, but that is off the top of my head without checking .

I believe there are cheap Chinese knock-offs available for less than half that amount. I have a smaller Chinese motor on a garden mulcher and it is the only motor I have ever owned that I can guarantee will start first pull every time!
