  • This is the final part of the tiny tabletop bandsaw build. I make a protecting cover, finish the machine neatly, and when I'm really, really done, add some more stuff..

    Mr. Uphoff, excellence is always envied, and therefore criticized. Excellent work, excellent videos, the last concern is cost, when excellence is the goal. And congratulations, you have proven that. Thank You for sharing. The others can go to Harbor freight and buy garbage.

    Hi, machinist here, i´m building my own cnc at the moment and just love to watch every home build i can find... The only thing imho that is a little pitty is that your workspace is very limited due to the arm of the machine itself would crash into the material as it gets long enough. Angle cutting therefore would also get extremely difficult to impossible. Anyway, when i´m watching cnc pro´s and their buildt, sometimes i really don´t know about it... 🙂
    You designed a very neat and nice machine that is capable and i´m sure good for your own use. I don´t know about your background man, but you´re doing a really good job! I really enjoyed the process, especially that you didn´t stop at the last 3% like so many do, but you´re also disassembling, painting and assembling again. This is making a huge difference imho, you´re really showing love to detail and a pro like attitude!
    Have fun with your projects, i´m sure you will always be highlighted when only looking at this build! ♥
    KR from Austria sir and thank you for sharing this,

    Beautiful work :) As long as tracking holds up over time, I think having all four blade-wheels rubberized is generally a good thing. Less wear both on the blade and the wheels! Looking forward to your next project.

      I'd worry about the bending of the blade. There's a design using 3 wheels, not four. In the end, it's about the blade no snapping before it's worn out anyway. Some saws got a wheel with a convex surface, the blade always climbs to the greatest diameter, centers itself.

    A very interesting and well constucted machine. Could you put a 6mm hex drive in your hand feeding wheel to allow for a removable power feed such as a cordless drill?

    • @Michel-Uphoff
      @Michel-Uphoff  3 місяці тому +1

      I considered an autofeed and took it into account in the design. But halfway through construction I abandoned the idea. Such an automatic feed only really makes sense if a cutting job would take a long time. And that is only the case with 30 mm solid steel (1 minute or so) or thicker . I have to cut that so rarely that I don't think the extra work is worth it.
      A cordless drill doesn't seem like a good idea to me. The speed is probably much too high for the more time consuming tasks you would like to use it for (cutting thick, solid steel with very slow feed rate).

      I bought mine in China. Here's another one: www.amazon.com/3000RPM-Motor-Speed-Noise-Brushless/dp/B0BYRSQXG1?th=1
      or just Google for: brushless 48v DC motor 400w. You also need a motor driver.
      For my design you also need a 90 degree 1:5 reducing gearbox.
