  • The Ultimate Portable Bandsaw Stand Build Mig Welding project. This week we are building the Ultimate Bandsaw Stand. This is probably the best bandsaw stand design that you will find. No tools are necessary to mount and dismount the saw, it sets up in seconds and it's aligned perfectly every time. This is a great beginner welding project and a great DIY do it yourself welding project so you can get dual uses out of your band saw tool. I give you all the dimensions you need to build this in your workshop and I also show you how I wired everything up.

    A real easy fix that I did on all my drill press and dust collector, and such. I bought a cheap foot pedal from Amazon, it does exactly what he's doing but it's already done for you. You plug into the foot pedal foot pedal plugs into the wall. When you're ready to operate it, you push the pedal with your foot. This is really convenient for drill presses because if you ever got a piece of metal caught in the drill press your reaction is to hang on to it and if you let go it's going to cut you. Whereas all you got to do is lift your foot up and the machine shuts off.

    @thebeardedstork432 Před rokem +2

    Brandon, I bought a similar table from "Swag Offroad" probably 5 or 6 years ago. I never even thought of building one myself, but yours is every bit as good! I also bought a foot pedal switch from him. The saw plugs into the foot switch, then the switch plugs into a wall outlet. I have mine on a small table stand. I agree with you in that I find this one of the most useful things in my shop! I use it all the time! Nice job on yours!

  • @5tr41ghtGuy
    @5tr41ghtGuy Před 3 lety

    Thanks for sharing this video! I have the same saw, and I made some angle iron "ears" which pick up the motor housing screws on the handle side of the motor housing. These ears have holes in them which I use to mount the saw to a column structure which I tacked to my welding table several years ago. I made a small saw table which clamps to the saw's foot with a 1/4" - 20 nut. My plan was make an independent stand for this, but you know how it goes - if it ain't broke ...
    Watching this video sparked some ideas for making a larger saw table which can attach to the angle iron ears, and clamp to the foot.

    I know this is an older video and outside it's a crappy day, so I'm cruising You Tube for ideas. I had just watched a guy on YT but he made his table very small but he did remember to add that little piece before he cut the top. And so I remembered your video, so watched it again.

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Thanks Jake. I love this tool! My bandsaw sat in the case most of the time until I build this stand. Now I use the saw every day and cant imagine being without it. Hands down probably my most used tool in the shop next to the welders.

  • @richardhansen469
    @richardhansen469 Před 3 měsíci

    Thanks, I'm hunting around youtube for ideas on making a bandsaw stand. But I need it to be all aluminum because I will be pumping water coolant on the blade. I don't need the saw to be easily removeable, except to change blades. I'd need a tub under it to catch the water and return it to the bucket with the fishtank pump. I may have to drill a weep hole in the saw bottom wheel housing and a rider on the blade to squeegee the water a little. A rip fence is a must for mine too. Sorry just thinking out loud here. Nice stand.

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  Před 3 měsíci

      Not at all, I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. I can envision exactly what you are trying to build. Very well thought out and nice touch with the aluminum. You could go stainless too but it's a bit pricy but would wear great on this application.

    Can't imagine where your getting a whole bag of shoulder bolts cheap but it certainly isn't in Missouri! I can't find cheap shoulder bolts anywhere, not even on the internet! I DO love your video's though Brandon. and never miss one of your posts! In a similar vein, as a person who can appreciate the value of Harbor Freight nearly as much as I do, you may see the value in this idea. It's awesome that you leave links to all the Evolution tools, TransSteel welder, and other top of the line tools you use, but realistically, the lion's share of us can't afford or even justify that level of investment to get started in our garages and workshops. Were for the most part hobbyists, backyard mechanics and wannabee's with champagne taste and beer budgets so if there's any suggestions for secondary choices of tools on a budget, you'd make a LOT of guys & gals really happy to get an alternative suggestion from someone who really knows the difference between budget tools and trash. Thanks for a great series and hope you never give up un us!

    • @BrandonLund
      @BrandonLund  Před 2 lety

      @John Freeman I get my shoulder bolts from Ebay. They seem to have the best price but I've also been told that drill rod from Macmaster Carr works also but I havent tried it. I have to say that I think you might be the first person to ever say that I'm not geared towards a beginner crowd. Sourching out fan requested budget equipment and alternate repair methods are what this channel is founded on. Although I do have some very expensive top end welders, most of my content is devoted exclusively to doing things on a DIY basis using budget friendly tools which includes several videos within the last few months using a $130 dollar Harbor Freight welder. I always include links to whatever equipment I'm using in each specific video along with all the other equipment I own and use. I even did a video where I brought that Harbor Freight welder on a mobile welding job this summer to more recent projects building floating corner shelves using imported multi process welders. I'm guessing you are either a newer viewer or you havent seen those episodes yet. I appreciate you watching and thank you for your support.

  • @6980869
    @6980869 Před 2 lety +1

    Great build and great ideas to go off of. One mod that i wouldve gone a different way, is the way that u powered it up. I haven’t made myself a bandsaw table but I have clamped it in a table vise, upside down or sideways so it’s vertical. I also ended up buying a harbor freight footpedal and plugged it into that, and that’s plugged into an outlet. All I did was cut a little piece of wood, kind of a wedge-shaped piece that would be able to go into the handle area on one side and stop at a certain point, bcuz the other side is bigger. But a velcro strap would probably be even better, as the wood piece sometimes would fly out, if the saw got jostled around too much, by myself cutting something in a way that i shouldnt have. Thanks for the ideas and thanks for sharing. Aloha!

      @@TrailBoundco you could try cutting the slots using a carbide ferrous metal blade then weld a flat bar to the bottom under the slot to create backing. Thats a similar design to the swag model if i remember correctly. When i purchased the swag table i also bought the incra v27 miter gauge. I Screwed a short 1x4 of trex decking to the miter gauge to use as a fence. This has all worked out fine and i do use this set up for smaller pieces often . For larger pieces i use a Grizzly 4x6 bandsaw. 🙂

    This is really cool. For mine I used 2inch square tube for a frame that can mount in a receiver hitch, then took a drop of 4 inch square tube and cut out a hook that grabs the handle, then made a plate welded to the frame that engages the bolts on the back of the bandsaw when it's hanging and cut to the right length that the table sits relatively level. Found a switch/outlet combo and mounted it into the 2 inch square tube and I use a spring clamp for the trigger. It works great for me

    Hey Brandon! I'm back again to watch this video -- about a month or so later -- and I've just got to stop to tell you that the stuff in your shop is really eye-catching! Right now, I'm really diggin' your DIY welding table top for employing clamps and dogs. I recently completed a 98" x 34" welding table because ... well ... we don't have enough room for a "real" welding table. Although I'm pretty happy with the frame and its heavy duty casters, the 8" flat - 2" gap - 8" flat table top design didn't come out the way that I'd like it to be: flat (as in it isn't) 🤣 So good on ya for taking some time to warn folks about warpage during welding. I'm also still lovin' the Fronius "MIG RIG" in your shop! I don't get a lot of interwebs time, but I trust that you've got videos for the welding table and that nice bench grinder stand, aye?

      @@BrandonLund Man, Brandon, I pulled a real dumb arse move. I based everything I did with the table top from the center of the grey metal motor housing adjacent to the blade. What I didn't do was take into account that the blade itself is offset! In other words, I marked out everything from the center of the table top plate outward, so now that the saw fits nicely onto the "tip" that I oh so carefully cut into the table top, the blade itself is off-center ... okay, go ahead and laugh ... I would.😂 Alright, now that you've wiped the tears of laughter from your eyes, show a brother fabber some kindness and please tell me that you know how far off-center the blade is? In other words, how far from the center of the motor housing does the blade actually cut? Obviously, it was my bone head move and my responsibility alone. I'm just hoping that you know how much steel I'll have to add the the "short side" of the table top to make things right again. Many thanks in advance for any thoughts about this. By the way, this is what my fingers look like right now >>>🤞
