  1. The blade tracks good now. It was way off the wheel when I got it and the blade wasn't,t even in the lower guides. Had to adjust all that so now it tracks right in the middle of the wheel.
  2. Everything looks good, even the wheels. Cut a little wood today to try it out. So far so good.
  3. Yea, it was well worth it. Just needed a little TLC.
  4. Hi everyone, hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. Well a friend of my sons was getting rid of this old band saw from the 70's and wanted to know if I wanted it. He was going to trow it out. So I took it. Free. It was all rusted and the blade wasn't adjusted right at all. He said he had it for years but never used it. Well I took it and took the top off and wire brushed it with my drill to get all the rust off and then sanded it with 400 grit sandpaper to get all the scratches out. Took the blade guides off and oiled them up and readjusted the blade guides and put it all back together. Now it works like a charm. Thinking about painting the stand a different color.
  5. Try a # 3 Ur. Might clean them up a little more.
  6. Same here. Happy Thanksgiving to all my new friends on here. Have a blessed day.
