Wood Band Saw conversion to Metal Cutting DC Drive

A 14" Wood Cutting bandsaw is converted to DC motor drive to allow it to cut metal.

Works great but you should show the motor and control installation.

Fantastic. Exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the write up!

No information at all about how the conversion was done

[@davehogan4776]

Where did you get your metal cutting blades? Also could you do a chop walk thru? I'm new to the channel and hooked on your video's

I lol try to do a shop walk through in a few days. I sourced my metal cutting blades on Amazon. I'm using Sarrett blades at this time. They have a web site that talks about what blade you need depending on metal and thickness.

Can you tell us how you converted it? What motor? Can you show the conversion? I have a 14' Craftsman Bandsaw I would like to do this to. Thanks.

What blade did you use in your video. Nice job.

[@roybertalotto6355]

Not sure what blade I had on in the video. But I only use Scarrett blades.

bad idea to have band saw hooked to a dust system all it takes is one spark been there!

Disappointing. Was waiting for info on how you did it. cost etc.What's the point of the video?
