Hi,

As luck would have it I finally found the time to set up my carbatec bas-350c today. The guides and the slider on the saw are identical to what you show from QWS.

I found a couple of...

I saw a video where a guy built a cyclone from a UK kit. If the intake became blocked the cyclone would collapse. Their solution was to make a pressure relief valve for the top of the lid. Theirs was...

Hi guys,

I previously posted this under a different thread I started about this bandsaw but it was probably too hidden to elicit discussion so I have started it as a new thread.

Hi guys,

I went and saw Leigh at Gregory's Machinery today and got all I need for this saw. There is much rejoicing. Bearings coming in the mail, tyres on their way from Ohio. Ye ha!

Luke from Carbatec sent me the SW-1401 manual and I have...

Thanks guys,

I got email when the first reply came in and came and read 2 replies then. I didn't realize that I would not get email notification about following posts to the thread. Sorry I had...

Hi Tim,

I just got one of these on ebay - I paid more for it and it is in worse shape than yours. I have to make a new drive shaft for mine. The pulleys have been played with. The motor one was...

Below are some photos of a band saw I bought second hand. It is labelled as a Craftmaster CWB-350 Built 1984.8 in Taiwan. I have found diagrams of a similar saw at Sears parts online but am unsure if...
