looking at buyin a wood mizer want a small mill to finish the house have rights to a lot of red pine whats the cost in a build like this liked the video great mill an hey for what its worth godbless an good luck !!
A water drip will keep the blade cooler and avoid pitch build up so the blades will stay sharper longer.All of the top models I've seen use it.I'm happy to see you took the time to build covers because some of the other videos in here seem to be meant for the SAW movie set !!!!
msredneck001, It is threaded rod. (3/4" 10 threads per inch) If I had it to do again I would probably use an acme thread with fewer threads per inch, as it would save a lot of turning.
On Top of the threaded rods I have sprockets the same size connected with roller chain. On top of the right threaded rod and sprocket I attached the handle to raise and lower.
That was what i needed to know for my next build. I had the same idea, about using a front hub with splined axle stub to drive the saw.. I have a 7.5 Kw 3 phase electrical motor around, which i bought as a spare for our irrigation pump. But later i found its 1400 rpm, the irrigation pump is 2800 rpm...
I have two 6 meter lengths of 5" pipe around, and the other odds and ends probably too, although those wont be the costly parts.
Also I used dummy tires from a 95 cavalier for the wheels, and I also used the front wheel bearing hub assembly, and also the rear wheel bearing assembly from the rear of the same car. That way everything bolts up. The front wheel bearing is used for the side that drives the wheels. I also used the spline off of that cars front axle and welded a 1-1/4" rod to it for the drive shaft.

Well done band mill and video. How did you rig your vertical adjustment? It looks like maybe on threaded rods.
