What a great set of mods. I'm going to get started on mine. I've had all of those problems: clamping short stock, vice extension for longer stock, tiny vice for tiny parts, turning it into a quick vertical saw. What a great list. Thank-you!!
Some very clever ideas here, I like the offside small vice idea! Working on it tomorrow. Big saws can cut small things, small saws cant cut big things... I have a big saw, now I can cut small things. Go Polska.!

Man, I totally did that with my Harbor Freight model. Made a roll around base with the swivel wheels that come on HF engine hoist, so it was raised up to a comfortable height and rolled around on sturdy wheels. But I also had to square up the lower blade guide surface where the table mounts in the Vert. position. Yes, adjusting the vise/clamp is necessary as well.
Always inspired be you. Thanks so much. I have a smaller cutter. I put a neodymium magnet on each side of blade to catch off cut of pieces. Keep losing them. Til next time.
Excellent. When buying these new generation cheap but fit for propose machines there is always the finer details missing or things not as we would like. What you are showing us here is ..."do something about it". What you have inspired me to do is get in and solve/do something about it on my lathe and mill. The next thing I guess is make a video of some of these mods I have made. Now that is quite a "next step" Thank you again from down under.
Young Man I have to let you know how impressed I am with your skills at such a young age awesome awesome amazing project that will make everything in front of this project go so much easier and quicker but more important than all of those things they will be more dialed in thumbs up my friend great build
Once again your not just the metal master your a master of proper tool design. I love your videos because they give me ideas on how to improve my equipment and skills. Thank You once again and please keep up the great work your doing with these videos.
With great thinking and affordable materials you transformed this basic band saw into a Cadillac versatile machine! Great job ! The power of imagination and necessity are mothers of all creativities and inventions

Not only the lathe can reproduce itself, the band saw is even close to it! :-) Great mod on the saw vice, didn´t expect that a simple addition of a threaded rod could improve that clamping so much! Thx for the vid! :-D
@@kaieteurcanada the vice only grips on one side of the vice because the piece of steel is too short to reach the pivot point of the vice jaw. The threaded rod acts like a longer piece of steel against the fixed jaw holding pressure against the shot piece of steel to be cut

Impressive! I thought making into a bandsaw and not only a cut off saw was about all that was left to do for improvements. Of course, last but not least! Man, I can't thinking of anything else other than some sort of DIY home made blade welder maybe? That's about all I have left on my mind. Thanks for sharing!
Great video, and some very nice improvements! I have the smaller 4x6 version (without coolant) and have made some improvements to mine also, to make it better and more accurate. Now you've given me a few more ways to improve it. Thank you.
You are truly a man with many talents, the roller table and the little vise additions are ingenious and everything you make turns out looking very nice too.
Now this is a coincidence.....I was browsing EBAY last week and ended up buying a bandsaw because I thought it would come in handy......now I just browsed the 'tube and what do you know .......ideas for making the bandsaw do things only more expensive saws can do......my congrats to your very agile brain.
You make me so glad I watch every one of your videos. You really should consider an assortment of Oetiker crimp hose clamps; we used to use the old screw hose clamps and needed to upgrade for higher pressure and plastic barbs. When we got the clamps and a tool we were amazed how much better it's been.
Wszystko co zrobiłeś jest genialne w swojej prostocie 😀 i mega ułatwia pracę. Udało ci się poprawić fabrykę w każdym miejscu z którym mam problem w mojej pile. 👍👍
Hello to all, you work very well and all the improvements you have made are interesting, especially the roller table and the additional vice for small cuts.... ;) Four pivoting wheels solve the problem of mobility in a decisive way.....but you have only put two.... Congrats!!!
Awesome modifications. We bought a used 7x12 horizontal band saw. It had flimsy sheet metal legs, one of which got bent when we were loading it. We made some 10 ga legs which held it up higher and put locking casters under it. Made it much better and more portable. I will have to look to see if I can put a bigger guard on it to have a bigger table if we use it as a vertical band saw.
That's the first time I've ever seen a drill & tap combo bit. That seems pretty clever. It must save a lot of time, assuming you only use bolts with the same thread pitch.
If you don't stop it in time, your mini vice might get cutoff. To fix that without having to change your stops every time, make 2 caps: * 1 to go over your physical stop bolt to space it higher. It's a cap so it can't fall off * 1 for the limit/shut-off switch. Might need to make one of them magnetic depending on layout of the machine. Tip2: add a tee & valve for a washdown/cleanup hose Tip 3: on the side facing you, add an extension as well, but beside it add a bar. Screw a ruler to it (give it some adjustment range) and make an adjustable stop, that even when free doubles as a quick measuring tool. (Might have to adjust slightly whenever you change angle or blades)

Oglądać ludzi z taką pomysłowością i talentem motywuje i cieszy . Dziękuję za to
That is a whole new level of awesome - you built a monster out of a normal bandsaw. Respect, man!
Под каким-то из Ваших видео я говорил что у Вас золотые руки.Повторюсь еще раз - Золотые руки!!!
I love the fact that each mod you make gets used in subsequent mods, or tools. Well done!
Some very clever ideas here, I like the offside small vice idea! Working on it tomorrow. Big saws can cut small things, small saws cant cut big things... I have a big saw, now I can cut small things.
Go Polska.!
I have the same saw. Absolutely outstanding mods. Thankyou.
I especially liked the small auxiliary vise, very clever!

Just what I was looking for that small clamp for small pieces! You are an inspiration my friend thank you
I consider these mods to be absolutely necessary. I will start on mine soon. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Nothing is more beautiful than using tools to make better, more efficient tools.
Really a great way to mod the bandsaw... Thanks for doing it on camera... Nice job!!
No no to teraz piwko po świetnej robocie😀💪💪
Jesteś mistrzem, dobrze że jesteś wraz ze swoim pomysłami.
For me Poland is this smart guy and Behemoth!
You forget Batushka! (hospodi pomiluy)

Very good video, today I bought a saw without, I plan to make several of these great ideas
I really like all of your other tools too - the plasma cutter, the vise-bender. I'm very jealous!
Excellent video.
Wonderful engineering skills on display.
The drill turning anti-clockwise is an optical illusion...
Well done sir. 👍👍
Thank you for the great solutions (much BETTER than ideas!) to these annoying problems. Getting to work now on mine.

Thank you very much. You just sold me on this saw.
I am amazed by the things and solutions found - just amazed every video.....
Wow, your hydraulic vise is cool! I'm gonna check out the build video on that next.
I’m dig’n that press brake/ vise tool!
I have absolutley the same "stiler". Made in poland. 2 years of work without Any problems. Good machine.
Brilliant improvements to the saw.
Damn, you're good. I put up with these shortcomings for years.
Awesome work. My favorite thing to do in my shop is improve shop tools.
Very handy mods , I will probably do some of these on my saw , nicely done
Niektóre rowiazania juz posiadam ale doposaże sie jeszcze w niektore twoje pomysły bo są mega pomocne :)
Pozdrawiam :)

Now you've given me a few more ways to improve it. Thank you.
Nice work. Your saw is much more useable now.
That small table is just ingenious! Now I gotta make one for my saw...
very nice upgrade of the metal band saw
Молодец!!! Почти все переделал за производителя. С удовольствием смотрю канал. Спасибо.
I have a very similar saw. Your ideas withe the vice are great. Thanks for sharing them!
Wieder einmal super Arbeit und tolle Ideen! Glückwunsch
You are truly a man with many talents, the roller table and the little vise additions are ingenious and everything you make turns out looking very nice too.
You have a golden hands and dimond brain!

Как всегда, прекрасная работа!
A very well thought out presentation that addresses some machinery design deficiencies.
Absolutely brilliant video. Great ideas. Great execution.
Another great job! Now it's a better saw.
Well done show off.. now you make me ant to go and get one of those saws just to modify it.. outstanding.. carry on!
Always nothing but great ideas! Dziekuje!

Nothing like those little luxuries .
bardzo fachowo to wygląda ! Pełen szacunek.
Dzięki!! :)
Excellent work, very intelligent and skillful.
Thanks for sharing and best regards from the UK.
Very well thought out, Nice! I like how the improvements were used as mods went along. Peace
These little tricks like the one with the ball bearings are really helpful. Could you maybe make a video where you show a few more of such tricks?
You bossed it grate video also the vise will make everyone jealous top man
Outstanding, he is genius!
Every mods is clever and well made !
Nice video! You have some mad skills! I enjoyed the whole show!
Taking something that is running good and make it perfect! Respect!

Hello to all,
you work very well and all the improvements you have made are interesting, especially the roller table and the additional vice for small cuts.... ;)
Four pivoting wheels solve the problem of mobility in a decisive way.....but you have only put two....
Congrats!!!
Four swivel wheels has the advantage for final positioning, but are a nightmare for moving any reasonable distance.

8 idées vraiment génial beau travail .
If you don't stop it in time, your mini vice might get cutoff.
To fix that without having to change your stops every time, make 2 caps:
* 1 to go over your physical stop bolt to space it higher. It's a cap so it can't fall off
* 1 for the limit/shut-off switch.
Might need to make one of them magnetic depending on layout of the machine.
Tip2: add a tee & valve for a washdown/cleanup hose
Tip 3: on the side facing you, add an extension as well, but beside it add a bar. Screw a ruler to it (give it some adjustment range) and make an adjustable stop, that even when free doubles as a quick measuring tool.
(Might have to adjust slightly whenever you change angle or blades)
Good ideas, it really should have come with some of them as standard.
