Drill Powered Band Saw

Does anybody remember this? As you can see, it is a drill powered Black & Decker band saw I got about 30 years ago. I have not used it in a long, long time but I purchased a steel cutting conversion kit with it at the time. It is a steel cutting blade and a replacement speed reduction gear. I have and need to cut light metal a few times a year so I thought I would put it on. What the heck, I got it!

I had forgotten about it's esixtence and that photo brought back memories of seeing it in sears many years ago. Very unusual. I wonder if sears sold many of them…I know now of one for sure. How well does it work?

Greg the WhoDat - It worked okay for what it was original purchased for. My wife wanted scrolled tread brackets for a house we were building. I talked her into letting me buy this saw and making them myself instead of buying the brackets pre-made. I guess I have had the saw for about 23 years rather than the 30 previously stated. It will cut ¾" material well and maybe even 1-1/2" if you go slowly. That's about it.
