Some things I did to my Craftsman 10ā bandsaw!
Well, I thought Iād share these modifications in case someone wants to tinker with their saw as well. The quick release mechanism as described here requires that you drill holes in the machine and fabricate some metal. If you are not comfortable with either of those then this may not be for you. What I fabricated works but is not pretty so keep the laughter to a low roar! Your design will vary depending on what parts you decide to use. First off, it was necessary to perform the standard tune-up stuff and getting new Olsen Pro blades made things go a lot better with all cuts.The first thing I did was to buy a 10-pack of good bearings and replaced all 6 on the saw.I had one freeze up...
