  2. Screwdrivers

    These pictures show some of the 24 screwdrivers I made and had laser-engraved for the Royal Military College Alumni. The kits were from Rockler and the handles were made from cocobolo and zebrawood. Each received 3 coats of tung oil and was buffed. A nice kit and nice wood resulted in nice...
  3. T-14 Purple Martin House

    Before hurricane Ike, we had a Purple Martin house, but it like a lot of other things was knocked down by the storm. So, I was finally able to get a replacement done and with a lot of help from SWMBO, it was installed in the back yard this last weekend. It's not the greatest bit of...

    Hey guys, I have a G0555 bandsaw and Im going to upgrade the capacity with the riser kit. My question is if all of the G0555 models (LANV, LX, X) are compatible for one another. I understand the color will be different, also that some models have a rack and pinion style guide bar adjuster. The...

    New here - hello all that sent me private message! I am in the market for a bandsaw. I am looking at the 14" models like the Grizzly's, Jet's & Deltas with riser blocks mainly because I need to cut some back splats for dining chairs that are 8" wide - so they will effectively be resawed in...

    I'm about to get the riser block for my G0555LX so i can resaw wider boards, and I'm trying to figure out what the best blade for that purpose would be. I've read that sometimes saws that say they can handle 3/4" blades have trouble tensioning them properly. Does anyone have any experience with...

    I am about ready to pull the trigger on a grizzly 6" riser block, part # H3051 with a 7/8" guidepost. Anyone out there done this conversion? I have read online that a couple of folks have done it. Many thanks.

    Hey all! Long time lurker, first time poster! I've been slowly putting together my "shop" and a lot of it is made from second hand tools I've torn down and fixed up. I recently got a bridgewood bandsaw "handed down" to me by a good friends grandfather (who has passed away now) The saw had...

    Does anyone know whose riser block will work on a Foremost Machinery 14" Band saw, It was built in Taiwan and I believe it was manufactured in the early 90s. The company was originally based in Kent, Washington.

    I have the Porter Cable PCB330BS band saw and got the riser block directly from the OEM. After installing the riser block, the blade is scraping on the new blade guard. I'm not sure how to fix this. I tried shimming the riser block with some feeler gauges to "tip back" the arm (see photo), but...

    Got an excuse to buy a Riser Block.. A couple of months ago, I bought this bandsaw off Craigslist. It's a great little Grizzly BS. A couple of weeks ago I bought about 50 bd ft of Black Walnut from a fella at First Monday Trade Days in Canton, TX for only $2.00 a bd ft. (killer deal). I think...

    I have tried to review the older LJ forums for "Riser Kits" so that I could find a riser block kit for my 14" Reliant Model DD90 bandsaw and really didn't get the answer to the question, Will a Grizzly H3051 Riser Block Kit work on a Reliant model DD90? Grizzly has the kit on the internet for...

    I have a 14" Delta model 28-276 band saw and I'm trying to find a riser kit to purchase. I see them for several other brands, but can't seem to find one on the Internet for delta. Am I missing something? Did it get discontinued? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    I like to make thing to help me cut wood, one way or another. I do a lot of resawing, and I get wood from a local saw mill. It measures at least 6". My Delta band saw won't quite handle it by a little bit, so I built my own riser block and guard. I also had an issue with blade lengths. See...
