How to Awesome BandSaw Upgrades
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- This video is all about upgrading my 14-inch bandsaw.It was a pain to adjust the blade tension with the factory tensioning handle so I installed a new longer tension handle,then I noticed my rubber tires have seen better days so it was time to swap them out with new urethane tires and finally I installed a fresh new carter 1/2inch 3 TPI blade and then I demonstrated how I set up my bearing guides and reinstalled my custom auxiliary table

Just bought a small bandsaw and wanted to replace the tires. This has to be the best demo I've seen on youtube. Thanks!
thank you Bill i have got a lot of good feedback thank you for watching
Nice job on the table fence. Why I am here. 2 major things for you and your viewers to consider. Number 1, your blade safety guard is installed backwards (long black guard on left side of saw which job is to prevent blade from coming out if it snaps). Easy fix, remove covers and flip it! Number 2, your barrings will prematurely wear the way you have them set up. Under no tension, NOTHING should move but the blade. I suggest anyone watching Alex Snodgrass's bandsaw tune up video. Nice channel
I'll agree for the back bearings, but if the sides aren't on the blade you sacrifice a whole lot of accuracy. For some cuts that is fine but in others it absolutely isn't.
Seen that too wondering if was to quit it down good eye same on bearings
O
VERY USEFUL INFORMATION....JUST GOT AN OLD SCHOOL DELTA...I'M GOING TO UPGRADE IT AND TRY TO IMPROVE IT....
Wow, triple upgrade! Nice work Patrick!
+Steve Carmichael yeah just a few things i been needing to change for a more reliable saw thanks for watching
Great video....now I know how to change the tires on my bandsaw....you are welcome....glad you like the new blade...hope it works well for you.
+Simply Wooden Creations I subbed you :)
+Simply Wooden Creations ah thanks buddy
I've got that same bandsaw. Found your video looking for tips on installing the urethane tires. These saws can be upgraded way beyond where you went. Mine has the ball bearing blade guides, plus riser block kit for much better resaw capacity, Grizzly tension / release mechanism, MLCS safety power switch on the post when my OE switch died. Wheel brush. I am about to add a 2.5" dust port to the bottom of the lower blade shroud as the OE pickup location is more or less useless.
This was a great video Patrick! I'm thinking that I should change the tires on my bandsaw as well.
+The Russian Woodworker thank you so much these new bandsaw tires changed the way the bandsaw feels so if you're contemplating changing them I would go for thank you so much for watching
Thanks for the demonstration! We’re getting that extension handle for one of our bandsaws. They’re oldies and this will be a nice upgrade!
You went all out on the upgrades! Great job explaining all the setup tips for getting a band saw rocking!!!
+Mike Merzke thanks so much Mike these are a few upgrades I been meaning to do for quite sometime so I'm glad I made a little video about it just in case to help somebody else out thanks so much for watching

Thanks for the video. I just bought that model and will be changing the tension handle and building a version of your auxiliary table.
awesome to hear, my saw works great and cuts anything I put in its way thanks for watching and good luck on the upgrades to your saw
Looks like your bandsaw is ready to roll! Nice job on all the upgrades, Patrick!
+Braxton Wirthlin thanks Braxton it looks like we are both ready to resaw some wood
Super cool upgrade Patrick!! I really like the handle upgrade. Might have to search the interwebs for that one. Thanks for sharing!!
+Nicholas Gomez thanks Nicholas that handle is worth it if you're looking for one there is a link in the description from amazon where i got mine thanks for watching

Thank you for watching
I wish youtube would stop unsubscribing me from random channels. Resubbed! Nice work. Wish i had a bandsaw like that.
+Willem Kossen man im happy to have you back aboard, thanks, and i know i wished for a bandsaw for a long time then i got this one and it's a work horse for a low price unit thanks for watching
The robotics team that I am on has a nearly identical band saw, though ours is blue and maybe a different brand. I'll have to refer to this video to get everything set up correctly. Good job man!
+nerdyrcdriver well thanks most 14 inch saw are pretty much the same setup thanks for watching
Great video, informative, organized and great use of video "speed up" to get through each step. - annie
+SuperYtviewer thank you annie
nice upgrades Patrick! I installed some of those urethan tires years ago on my 14" Powermatic and they work great!
+Mike Kapotsy yeah its a big improvement thanks for watching
Nice. Simple and to the point. Good vid.
Excellent video Patrick, Great upgrades, especially that new handle.Regards,Bob
+RJBWoodTurner thank you Bob
thanks for the how-to - easy to understand the way you explained!
+Radtke:Makes thanks for watching
Thank you for this, I been think about a band saw but know very little about them ,perhaps a video on looking and buying one
+o well well research is key to most successful operations
Great tutorial and Awesome video Patrick!
+Moy perez woodshop thanks Moy
Nice job on this one Patrick. Particularly like the effects used to speed up the teadious tasks like threading nuts on.
+LipSkid thanks so much lots of work goes into these vids and good to have comments like yours thanks for watching
Great job Patrick. I can see the effort.
+Rick McQuay thanks Rick i'm glad you can recognize the work i put into it thanks so much for watching
Love the updates, I just got gifted this saw and looking to update the bearing guides and there is no clear part for the "Central Machinery" bandsaw, what bearing guides do you have installed?!
Nice work, Patrick! Thanks for sharing.
+Humus Workshop thanks
Great job Patrick. Nice tutorial.
+Donnie G thanks
Nice upgrade I like tensioning handle
+Mike Fulton thanks Mike yeah i agree the handle made the tensioning process a breeze now well worth the money for that upgrade thanks for watching
Well... yes. A good bandsaw, On my wish list!! (and some good info on what to look for..)
+Not Just Sawdust well i guess a good price is the best place to start then go from there
great video Patrick love the new handle
+Yourvideossuck247 thanks it was my best improvement to this saw thanks for watching
Nice upgrade video
+John Keith thanks John
Cool upgrades Patrick.
+ITS A WOOD THING thanks Ronnie apprechiate
the comment
Learnt how to adjust bearings. Thanks
no problem so thanks so much for watching
LOL. Good thing you slyly, without mention, vacuumed out the band saw interior between removing the old tires and installing the new. Would have made a mess of those new tires otherwise. By the way, did you think we wouldn't notice? That's nearly always my first step when working inside the band saw, so I noticed.
Great info! I think I need to show my bandsaw some TLC
+Dale Nimmo i hear ya its been long overdue for these upgrades and now she purrs again thanks for watching
You've inspired me to replace my tension knob with that handle. How old were the tires you replaced?
+Wood Tools Workshop awesome to inspire i believe on this saw those tires were original to the saw and its a 2003 model so it was past due for new ones i thank you for commenting and for watching
This was helpful! Thnx Patrick
what the? how did you get the table saw burn marks after that cut at 6:45?
good stuff patrick!-i like the handle and aux table! i just got some new tires not that long ago.. it took me awhile to figure a way out had to get the tires on but I ended up using my heat gun I like the boiling method though
+Joe basementwoodworking i can tell you that heating them with hot water made it a super delightful process to change and it didnt over heat the tire and put any weak spots on them so i am confident they will last a very long time also i with the price of the tires i didnt want to chance messing them up thanks for watching
Patrick's Work Shop that makes sense..heat spread evenly..ill remember that for next tire rotate;) and i always do:]
Enjoyed the video Patrick !
thanks so much for watching i am glad you liked it
Nice upgrades Patrick! Now build something!
+SouthernGinger ok i'll make something
I don't set the back bearing against the bandsaw blade. I set my blade only when the blade is cutting.
Hey, great job! Did you do a video of the blade guide upgrades? I have the same band saw and it's time to do it up,,👍
Set it up like Snodgrass video shows. best upgrade I did was change to Carter guides.
carter makes good products, on my saw I found the way I demonstrated works best for my needs and how I like the guides to be set on my saw to each their own thanks for watching
That was a great "How to" video!
+Rag Tie thanks so much for the nice comment thanks for watching
Hi. I'm just new on woodworking. I bought a Harborfree 14" bandsaw. Well I'm not reach so Grizly, Powermatic, Laguna, delta, etc they are so far, far away of my possibilities. I know that this us not a high quality machine but, can I make some upgrades to it ?
Is that a T32208 Central. Isn’t that limited to a 3/8” blade?
Thank you !!!!
Nice Upgrades !
+Sterling Davis thanks Sterling
new blade won't last long, the blade has to touch the bearings when you push against it. not when in is normally running. just a tip ;p
+jordy verhaegh thanks for the tip, but i like how i have it set up it give me very accurate cuts thanks for commenting
Ok no problem :)
Appreciate the links for the replacement parts. I have the same saw and unsure of proper sizing. Usually only see other brands.
Know where i can get a new plate insert?
Awesome sauce bro! I really appreciate the video. I think there’s something wrong with your website it shows that it’s offline.
Good stuff Patrick!
+donny carter thank you Donny
AWESOME!! thanks
don't allow the bearings to touch the blade. use paper in between to establish the minimal space. you want to have little to no noise when running standalone(without cutting)
noticed the top rear bearing was spinning after replacing blade .do you want the bearing to spin or back off slightly ?
brilliant
Cool, thanks.
+jonh walsh no thank you
lol.. dramatization. Good upgrades and good video. All of the quick cuts turned out good together too.
+Ty Moser (MonoLoco_Workshop) ha ha glad you liked Ty thank you so much for watching
Cool. Thanks. Subscribed and thumbs up this video. That says it all.
thats a wesome Jon!!!! welcome aboard and thank you for watching
Nice vid! Thanks for the tips!
Great upgrades!
+Kaged Creations they made a huge difference thanks for watching
Never push the thrust bearing up against the blade put it about a 1/16" away
Seconded. Leave space between the bearing and blade so the bearings don't prematurely wear out.
Looks like worth while upgrades.
thanks Greg they made a huge difference thanks for watching
Great video, Patrick! Time to kick the tires and light the fire... lol
+KSFWG tires kicked and fire is roaring thanks for watching
Good stuff.
+Lazy watchsmith thank you
Hi, Patrick! First of all, Awesome video!!
I would like to ask you for a riser block kit that fits into this machine.
Thanks in advance
Good information! Thank you. What kind of base are you using that it moves that easily?
I have my bandsaw on a harbor freight furniture dolly it works pretty good for moving it around
Same saw I got. Thanks man. Where did you get the new tension handle?
+Ray King hey man a problem I got the tires and the tension handles from Amazon links in the description if you're looking thanks so much for watching
Nice editing work! just curious what editing software and camera are you using
+the Von Thompsons thanks so much I'm using iMovie and just a little cannon camcorder nothing fancy here just a little effort into what I'm doing thanks so much for watching
Nice Upgrades :)
+Live Free and DIY thanks for watching
good stuff , thanks
Hola como estas ya me gustaria a mi tener una sierra circular como la que tu tienes gracias por tus videos.
+Jose Miguel Manuel Bajon
gracias no estoy seguro , pero me gusta gracias por ver
where did you perches the Ball Bearing Guide I found the top with bearing on ebay but not the bottoms with the bearing. love your videos man. keep it up.
hey Jack this saw came with bearing guides on it , but with a single bearing .
I tapped the holes to 1/4 20 and added double bearings I was looking at the guide upgrade from carter products but it was to expensive heres what i was looking at www.carterproducts.com/band-saw-products/band-saw-conversion-kits/cent-14# so i modified mine instead if u have the guide blocks on your saw i know alot of people who prefer that type best bet is the carter ones or making some ur self my bandsaw is theCentral Machinery 14" inch from 2006
Hey loved the upgrades. looks like the harbor freight band saw i have if so where did you get the bearing guides that would also be a great upgrade for my saw
+KYWOODWORKING thank you so much the bearings were on the saw when I got it I'm sure you can look online and find the ones that change out the factory ones thank you so much for watching
I thought the bearings aren't supposed to touch the blade?
I see others do it that way but personally I like the blade touching so it don't flex and I feel it gives my more control thanks for watching
So does anyone know where to get these guides
what about a fence ---the cheapest aftermarket ive seen is 169.00----kinda defeats the purpose of buying harbor freight---does the table have pre-drilled holes to accept a fence---if u google harbor freight bandsaw fence u get the shipping pack directions for a fence---what do u think ?
hey Greg the table does have the mounting holes also i have been looking at a few aftermarkert fences but im a cheapskate and think i can build a very nice one thats more better and can add other features to it stay tuned for that check out the fence i made a few years back that fits on my auxiliary top th-cam.com/users/edit?o=U&video_id=nCyzX6NBCFU thanks for watching
Hello Patrick
I happened to find a band saw used very similar to yours before you buy it, and I would like to know your thoughts on it.
regards
hi i like my bandsaw it works good as long as it is tuned up and has a good blade i want a bigger one someday but this works good in my small shop for now
thanks for the comment Patrick
what kind of spices you used by cooking the tires?
haha i like my tires spicey
that was awesome!
+Summers Woodworking thanks Brian just a quick slapped together video nothing fancy ...yet
Still... awesome work bro
great video, did your saw came with those guide bearings? mine came with blocks and wonder if I could upgrade, thanks
+Edgar Avila yeah Edgar my saw did come with the bearing guides, if you're looking to upgrade years take a look at the Carter ones they seem to be pretty nice thanks so much for watching
this is a central machinery right? what is the max depth of cut for resawing? thx
hello Greg on this machine as it is now i can resaw 6 inches , when i get a get a6 inch riser block and a 103 inch blade i could cut 12 inches but for now i like it in this configuration thanks for watching and commenting
will these up grades work on all band saws?
+joseph poncik a lot of the newer bandsaws already have these upgrades on them My bandsaw is from 2003 so it's kind of a little older and needed in all these parts anyway, I believe most 14 inch bandsaws are similar in many many ways so yes I do believe so thank you so much for watching
Great upgrades buddy. I really like the long handle. I'll bet it's a joy to use now :)
+Mark Christopher yes sir that longer handle sure makes blade swaps a lot easier and faster now thanks for watching
Hey Patrick
Very helpful
How is the Pup
+Gregg Voice of Reason hey Gregg just posted a talky tuesday with a doggie update thanks for watching
v good
+Raja Manickam Thank you
I enjoyed this video dude!!! Very well made..>>>
It depresses me how your Harbor Freight bandsaw looks to be identical to my Jet. ;-p
Patrick Great Video What make is your saw? I,am thinking of getting a Grizzly.Thanks
hey Anthony this one is a slightly modified Central machinery (harbor Freight) and Ive had it for a while and its worked out good for everything I use it for I would like a riser block but i have like 6 new blades i want to use up first a 17 inch grizzly is on my list someday
Anthony Maida , it looks like a harbor freight central machinery
like a Bauss!!!!
+Matt Lane you know it
Why is your bandsaw on a swivel?
