Thanks! I haven't updated yet: I've been working on 3D printing a rack and pinion fence system with a gearbox that I'm hoping to feature in a future video. Everything takes longer with kids!
That really means a lot to me, thank you so much. I'm still learning how to make these videos, and although things aren't polished, this idea was kicking around so long that I just wanted to get it out. I've uploaded the .stl and .step files to Printables here: www.printables.com/model/734680-low-profile-bandsaw-sled-carriage Thanks again for watching!
heck yeah brother, keep up the great work, the video was very entertaining and i learned a lot from it, and i appreciate ya for it as well for sure!! Thanks for the stl's too. cheers bud! @@themoyersdostuff
Looks like one of the most dangerous contrivances on the woodworking internet. The operator's position consistently puts his right arm in danger if something goes sideways and he reaches forward. The kerf will be closing up and binding the cut since there are no shims to keep it open and there is a high likelihood that the operator will push too hard and possible fall into the saw losing an arm.
Unless he's completely brain dead this thing is fine. He's not pushing hard in the video and if the kerf closes hard enough that he really needed to full-body shove it would stop the blade. A sign that something is wrong and he should stop. You could have any big piece of lumber you're resawing close up hard too and you'd be in the exact same situation just doing a normal resaw. Again, as long as you're not dumb it's fine. Like every single thing you do with any saw.
Excellent DIY!
Most of us forget the simple kiss method of developing things which results in expense add complexity.
Thank you! I can say that I spent very little money on this and have some great looking boards as a result.
This is what im looking for whole day..thank you bro..
I'm glad you found this helpful! Let me know if you have any questions!
good job 👍
Thank you!
This week I did 17 red oak 47 inch logs some had to cut down the middle with a chainsaw. 18 is to big for my 17 inch 2hp grizzly
Great idea, did you ever update with a moving fence and clamping points?

Yes it does!@@themoyersdostuff
holy cow i was literally about to make those same kind of rollers...like exactly the same, do you mind sharing the .stl for that?
Great minds! I'll upload the .stl and post the link later tonight!
@@themoyersdostuff you are amazing!! Great video and nice solutions/results you came up with in the video

Do you sharpen your blade on the saw?
I haven't yet. Just put a new blade on after the last one popped and started lubricating the blade before each cut.

Great job. Those big logs are fun. Markjonesranger.
Thanks! Still making tweaks to the system but enjoying the process!
