I Just got this new to me Wilton 1765 for free! It has never been used and in great shape.

The replacement belt was a Gates.

My toolboxes are on wheels, but They have been in the same spot for 15 years. The only time I move them is to clean behind them or if I drop something. I say build it in. You will not regret the longer top.

So the OEM belt is online for $40 + shipping. I did some searching and found the specs so I could find a standard replacement. $9.00 at a local car parts house. It fit perfect and you could see the old belt had stretched. All is good!

Nice clean looking install!

I have a Porter Cable 80 gal compressor. An air hose in the shop split and the compressor ran for who knows how long. I shut the compressor off. I thought the pump had locked up because the motor was running, but the pump was not. The pump is OK but the belt was very loose. I was able to loosen...

I agree, a good idea, but I can't take credit for it. I saw it in a YouTube video.

Cool idea!

Thx! I did grind off the coating before welding, but didn’t know about running a bit hotter. I appreciate the help

I have the Bosch 18v bandsaw for small hand held use.

Thank you for the suggestion. It’s one of things I never remember to buy until it’s time to tap a hole

Nice!. I am working on a vfd for my drill press and was not sure how to mount the box. This helps.

I bought a Milwaukee portable bandsaw used a few months back with the idea to make a table for it. Well, here it is. I also posted a YouTube video on it if would like to take a look at this newbies welding & fab skills.

Liking it so far. Looks like it needs some kind of push or pull handle on it. Look forward to seeing it finished.
