    Craftsman 12'' King-Seeley Band Saw

    Anyone have a recommendation on a good blade to cut steel? Anywhere from 14 gauge to 1/4'' plate? I've heard Lennox is where it's at, however I can only find their bi-metal blades in 3/4'' width.... Any thoughts on the blade in the link below...

    Craftsman 12'' King-Seeley Band Saw

    I got this today for $40, missing the stock stand. Came with some ****** homemade wood base I threw away the moment I got home. It seems to be in decent shape. The upper bearings feel a little chunky...I have plans to make a stand and re-gear it to cut metal. Does anyone know what year this...

    Craftsman band saw.. wood to metal....

    I don't have an issue figuring out how to slow it down once I get it home. Just curious if it's a good starting point. I agree it looks cool and seems to be in mint shape

    Craftsman band saw.. wood to metal....

    Would the band saw in the link below be a good candidate to convert into a metal cutting band saw? http://madison.craigslist.org/tls/5880144551.html It has a 1/3 HP motor, that spins 1750 RPM.. I am leery about not having enough power and the cast body of the saw flexing... Thanks

    Masterforce 8" Bench Grinder

    Opinions on this bench grinder from Menards? Seems to be pretty decent for the price? I like the large alloy tool rests. http://www.menards.com/main/tools-hardware/power-tools-accessories/grinders/masterforce-8-bench-grinder/p-2010529-c-9075.htm

    I have this set, got it over the holidays. Seems to be decent for $30. The ratchet is junky, but the casting and finish look nice on the other bits. COO China.
