Bandsaw

>wood and electronics
Yes, this exactly what bandsaws are made of. Wood, and fucking electronics.

Sometimes I wish we could transplant /diy/ off of 4chan so we could avoid this kind of dumb shit.

>>1127453
what do you mean 'help'

do you have a design?
do you have a sketch?

'electronics' in a bandsaw should be a switch

>>1127459
fucking this

>>1127460
do you really think someone who thinks a bandsaw can be made from timber will have any of this? why waste your time? and why encourage dumbasses to come here asking dumbass shit?

sage, hide etc.

>>1127460
By electronics I mean the motors that drive the saw and yeah well the switch too but also power cables.

yeah that's a pretty good bandsaw, made with hundreds of hours of work and previous experience, at least a couple hundred dollars of tools, and a lot of lucky dumpster wood finds

>>1127472
And your point is what?

It's a cheap bandsaw made from timber. That's what OP asked for.

Not sure if you've ever bought a band saw but they're generally not cheap and when they are, they're shit.

buy a portaband and stick it in a frame

>>1127475
i don't think i'd call wandel's bandsaw cheap

it's probably better for OP to buy a cheap bandsaw and do some replacement/repair to make it work as best as it can

>>1127476
auctions are the best place for tools - was just at one, a working milwaukee portaband with box went for $60. some lucky fucker got a makita die grinder new in box for $20

I really don't think you have any credibility if that's what you think.

>i don't think i'd call wandel's bandsaw cheap

Wut? He made most of it out of wood he found in the trash. It is primarily plywood, pine and a couple hardwood parts. Plus two bicycle tires and a motor he most likely also dumpster dived for.
