Also recommend the swag offroad finger brake kit for his press. Thing is awesome at bending up brackets.

Looking for some ideas on diy welding jigs and clamps to make fab jobs go smooth. Thanks guys

Thankyou tool Gods.

Thanks brand x. I need to build a safety screen. Ive seen them made of chainmale. Hung on pivoting arms above the press they meet in the middle. I never want a piece of metal going through me or anyone else.Thanks for the info guys

How does it connect to the ram?

Brand x is that a quick connect with tooling.I want to do something like that so tools cant come at me.

Thanks Royce. If i ever get to Alaska im looking you up. I want to see all the cool stands and the vise.

I have a bunch of swag gear. Good stuff. I have their press finger break and their heavy duty arbor plates. I have a 50 ton otc press im going to try to use for blacksmith forging. I want to forge some hammers with it.

Please show your homemade shop press accessories. Im thinking of building or having built a thick pair of V blocks that fit tight inside the bed channel. Thanks guys

I need a step pulley for my Powermatic 143 part # 6807070 Ive looked everywhere. Comes up as discontinued. Im hoping someone has one sitting on a broke or beat saw. This is the step pulley coming off the gear box.Thanks

Im looking to get a really good respirator to use mostly for grinding. And dust. It seems the 3m 7500 is good. Whats the best?

Thanks for the info guys. I went and got the saw today. It spent most of its life cutting thin aluminum. It was made in the early 80s. Guide bearings are fairly new . Trunnions in good shape as is the table. Came with a few extra blades. I need to put a goose neck light on it and vacuum it out...

Thanks to the Garagejournal and youtube. I know alot more about band saws. Would it make sense to remove the table for transport ?

What happens to the trunnions? Do they crack, or wear out? Im new to band saws. Ive used them. But never had to make a call on a good or bad one.Thanks for the info

Looking over an old powermatic 143 bandsaw ? Im going to be looking at an old powermatic 143 bandsaw. Any tips. Do they have any weak spots? Can i lay it down in the bed of my truck without hurting it? Im using it to cut metal.

I have only used very little. But its awesome.

It looks like a power hacksaw.

I have a forklift to unload it. Its my pride and joy. No more lifting heavy stuff. Best thing ive bought in a while. Everytime i use it i smile. I'm probably the best machinist I know in my mind. Haha. Ive looked at some beat up machines. The search continues. Thanks for the help guys

I kind of want to stick with a brideport. Parts are everwhere. I have a small mill now. Im just making one off stuff for repairs and gun rests and parts for welding projects. A lathe is in the works. Thanks guys

Thanks for the info guys. Now to find a machine that hasnt been beat to death
