H/F bandsaw mods

Iam a hobby knifemaker. I got a H/F metal cutting bandsaw. I knew I was just going to use it in the vertical position, so I decided to make a seat for it. And it went on from there. Here are pics...







This turned into a much longer project. The oiler system was made with parts I had laying around, the seat was upholstered by a friend of mine, the table came from a scrapped cheap bandsaw and the foot switch was left over when I closed my studio. After all the additions and adjusting the saw, it runs great. ...Teddy

Man, I gotta do that to mine! That seat is clutch! The original vertical work rest is such a #### joke....flexs like crazy and the screws come loose all the time. Very very clever Goldsmithy!
