The Makers Mob 99¢ Summer Sale: rlnk.cc/paskmakesmakersmobsummersale This was a really fun project and great to use this old bandsaw that was just getting in the way. What would you have done with it? And let me know your thoughts on a vintage style drill index.
Do the drill index please. Stuff like this interspersed with your usual wood stuff and your new venture into metal is a good mix. That’s my opinion for what it’s worth.
Man, that is cool! What a unique solution. And the amount of times you say "so I made this off camera" and whatever you made was worthy of a video in itself is a great testament to your skillset. Well done!
I love repurposed things. What a great way to store your tools & keep them clean, looks nice on the wall, and yeah would love to see the drill portion. I love watching skilled people work whether they are pros or amateurs. My wonderful dad was a skilled amateur and he made incredible things just as you do. Thanks for sharing your skills & abilities. You are a joy to watch.
Pask, that's a nice way to keep something from becoming scrap. I had a boss that saved an electrical cabinet from a huge boiler and used it for storage in a job trailer. While there were a few holes in it for conduit, he welded them up, and had a nice storage box.
I really loved how you reused the power switch. That was awesome and so much better than just leaving it for decoration. Great project over all (like always)
NOOOO.. he said he has another one that the actually useful bits are extras for. oh, ok, someone making something like this out of a complete piece of garbage would be cool too.
I wish someone would make a video on how to upcycle a crappy GMC drill press. There's got to be a better use for mine, because it stinks as a drill press.
I will say my grandfather saw a couple of your videos and was absolutely amazed at how fast and precise you are at making everything you do and how easy you make it look. Keep in mind he worked at a factory in metal Molding and is a handyman and tool guy I go to a lot. Also he served in the military and is now 88 years old. But he was absolutely amazed and couldn't stop watching you. I honestly think the same thing of how you make everything look like a kindergartener could do it.
Best thing to ever happen to something made by GMC😂. I admire your vision as that’s something I completely lack. Show me something and I can make it but ask me to repurpose something and I’m stuck. Great job. Cheers Stuart. Canberra.
This turned out fantastic Neil. Great idea for repurposing and yeah I’d love to see you do the other project you mentioned at the end. Great video mate 👍🏼👍🏼
It's so cool to hear about making your own tools, like the chamfer bit. What a neat project! Watching you make stuff is always a treat :) also this kind of metal work makes me think of the youtuber 'my mechanics'
Lots of great ideas here. The switch was a nice surprise. This has quickly become one of my favorite channels - talky/worky ratio is perfect and the projects are interesting- thank you!
Nice job! Some people recommend covering the lathe ways with something when using sandpaper. Just in case some particles fall onto the ways, and damage them over time. Not that few times will hurt it much, but it's a new machine, and I want you to enjoy it for years :)
A very clever way of re-using old scrap. I really enjoy your smooth video style. Long time fan, and now I know I can remove the motor on my old bandsaw, its a cheap plastic one so I can't re-use it like you, but I can still use the motor and other part for cool stuff. Thanks for showing what you did, and please do keep making videos like this! I would love to see the next type of cabinet you do that you said you might do! I really enjoy this! Thanks!
Very creative. Cool that the internals are extras for an existing one, so nothing lost. That will be fun to use every time the lathe comes into play. :-)
That turned out really well, great reuse of what would otherwise be scrap! I'll put another vote up for seeing the drill index build, I'm currently using a block of wood with holes in it for mine so the inspiration would be welcome. Good advice on getting a lathe, I've had one on the wishlist for a while but the secondhand ones disappear quickly down here, to the great relief of family members 😂
Awesome project. Love the idea of reusing something old that would usually go to scrap. I done similar with an old plexiglass faced electrical box that I used to house drill and router bits.
YES - if you are able to film your little project for the drill index PLEASE DO :) ...I am sure you have better things to be doing than spending time filming a tiny project, but any kind of video that you put out is amazingly wonderful and the best mental break for me during this lockdown.! I have a whole bunch of your videos on a playlist loop that plays in the background whilst I work from home - just listening to them is so helpful to get me through the days and even watching a tiny project from you puts a massive smile on my face...and I get so enthused to fix up stuff around the house and try new projects of my own :) Thanks for your videos and take care out there.! :)
Great repurposing and you have a spare motor too! I would definitely like to see a tool holder or drill index added! I don't have a lathe, so I am envious. You might add interior cabinet lights to the switch just to illuminate the contents.
I'll be honest, at first I thought this was a silly idea, but as the video unfolded I was drawn in... In the end I think it's really creative and a neat project!
Nice and Classy wall cupboard fitting for your shop, Neil! The light was an excellent addition too! Seeing you build a tipping/Angle drill index would be great and a nice addition to your storage. I might consider using a cleat and handle so it can travel to the workbench, drill press, etc. and be handy. Thanks for the repurposing treat!!
Pask, you could put a video up of you hanging out your washing and I'd probably watch it! Great project this - always good to see things being repurposed and done so well. Cheers.
Great project!! Love it! You're right, until you have one, you don't realise how useful a lathe is. I don't have a mill still, but I will one day soon hopefully! Cheers!!
Love all of your videos. The environment you’ve created to work in is an inspiration! Would watch anything you put out so custom drilling decks heck yeah!
Do I have an old bandsaw kicking around? No Do I even have a workshop? No Do I even have or need any tools besides the handful I keep for fixing small stuff around my apartment? Also no Am I watching because it is a Pask video and you never miss a video from this legend? Fuck yea! Thank you for this work of art, I will be rewatching it many, many times.
Great use of an old tool. That is one cool new Lathe you have there! Glad to see you enjoying working with it! Of course we want to see you make the center wall board.

What would you have done with it? And let me know your thoughts on a vintage style drill index.
film all the things!
@@kedrickswain6509 Hell yeah.
Most definitely
Isn't it winter in Australia?
No need to ask
Do the drill index please.

That’s my opinion for what it’s worth.
Agree!
Yeah, we'll watch anything you do!
Agreed. I’m enjoying the mix!
Agreed! I'd watch you change a flat tire 🤣 but metal work would be GREAT to add to your wood working skills
Agreed
Man, that is cool! What a unique solution. And the amount of times you say "so I made this off camera" and whatever you made was worthy of a video in itself is a great testament to your skillset. Well done!
Thanks very much Tharemy - glad you liked it! :)
I reckon any video you make is a winner so the drill index definitely gets my vote!
Making the switch more than just show and actually functional was a nice touch. some of the best upcycling I have seen in a while.
Thanks Matthew - I was just going to leave for show but then thought I really should do something with it. :)
Such a cool idea for re-using old stuff. Definitely film the Drill Index please, I love to watch you work on anything.

This is just so clever, what a great solution vs just a standard every day cabinet.

“Let me know if it’s something you’d like to see.”
Everything you make is something I’d like to see!!
I really loved how you reused the power switch. That was awesome and so much better than just leaving it for decoration.
Great project over all (like always)
There'll be a run on old crappy GMC bandsaws now so people can make these cabinets. Nice upcycling.

Absolutely brilliant Neil, terrific imagination. That's what sets you apart, I would never in a million years have thought of that. Regards Jim UK.
Thanks very much Jim - glad you enjoyed it! :)

I love this, particularly all of the clever details and the light at the end.
I loove your creative repurposing/antique upcycling projects and would love to see more!!
So happy to see that you've gotten the lathe. Loved the first demo. And definitely film the indexing box
That green is the most beautiful 1960s industrial color ever. Thanks as always.
There's only one place that you can put the motor you took off.. Behind the propeller. 😊
I do still have ideas for the propeller, hopefully I'll get to that soon. :)

Thanks - I love making tools even if they are just for a one off! :)
Clever reuse of the machine housing, nicely done!
Nice work Neil!
This is absolutely the epitome of “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”
Your videos are like a nice glass of wine after a long day for me. Great idea, and when you showed that switch at the end I simply melted. Thank you!
Great use of something that may have landed in the junk yard. Enjoyed this Video .
I think the theme of the bandsaw storage cupboard fits the look of the lathe and workshop very well. very good skills too.
Such a great reperposing of this old bandsaw. I for one would like to see the build of the drill index.
Glad you liked it Jim! :)
What a cool way to reuse something rather than throw it out. I love how your mind works.
Lots of great ideas here. The switch was a nice surprise. This has quickly become one of my favorite channels - talky/worky ratio is perfect and the projects are interesting- thank you!

Thanks! I did think about that but thought aluminium would be fine. :)
Do the drill index please. i'd like to see that. cheers from Greece.

Your brilliance and innovation never cease to amaze me, Neil. Good to see the lathe in action. Cheers, Mandy
Thanks very much Mandy! :)
I really enjoy videos with lathe action.
I came for the woodworking, and I stayed for the metal works you do 😀
I love it that you restore old tools and machines
Very creative. Cool that the internals are extras for an existing one, so nothing lost.
That will be fun to use every time the lathe comes into play. :-)

Thanks Geoff - good luck with finding a lathe! :)
Genius Idea. It fit your tools perfectly too!
Awesome project. Love the idea of reusing something old that would usually go to scrap. I done similar with an old plexiglass faced electrical box that I used to house drill and router bits.
What a great way to make some extra storage space. The drill index would be a cool addition.
Fab up cycling of an old bandsaw cab. I love the switch at the end. Brilliant. 😃
Those doorknobs are exquisite, the level of detail is insane
For sure we want to see all your ideas. Even if it just a drill storage holder. Love the reuse of what my have just been scrap.
Would love to see a video of the drill index also. Great project! Enjoyed it.
Very cool repurposing project Neil.
I agree, metal lathes are fun to play on.
Yes on the drill index.
I love upcycling videos. This is so much better than throwing it in the trash and making a new one.
Beautiful repurpose on old equipment, love the idea!
Great use of old stuff and it turned out better than anything you could buy
Anything you make is worth the watch
nice way to re-use the old saw great result
What a great use of old parts destined for a junkyard for scrap or the dump. 💪🏼
Yes please in regards to the drill index video. I will literally watch any of your videos, thanks!
beautiful repurpose of the old Bandsaw! The colour reminds me of old milling machines and lathes but in this case it's fitting.
love this project! would love to see the storage in between top and bottom!
Great build. Awesome re-use of old equipment. I reckon it might look pretty sweet with your logo in white on the top of the bandsaw.
Awesome use of an ild tool. Especially when the switch turned on the light. I thought of lights in the tool part.
This idea is so neat ! I would never have thought of doing this, and it's so cool around your lathe ! Thumbs up for your custom knobs 👌
Thanks mate - glad you enjoyed it and liked the knobs! :)
Love it! So nice to see new life breathed into old things! So clever.
This is such an awesome re-using of an old tool!! 10/10 again!!!
That's a super awesome way to re-use an old tool!
Yes any project to add to it would be nice to see.
Cool upcycling idea! Looks like it fits great in the shop. Thanks for sharing!

I think the knurl, as sanded down, looks great.
The camera magic you did to make the covers for the hole where the blade was just made me miss This Old Tony!
Super nice re-purpose Neil!! The light switch was brilliant 👏. ... always look forward to your videos. Thanks for the post!
You're so talented, it's a pleasure to watch you make anything. Truly.
I really liked the videos you did fixing up your car port and garden gate. I would like to see more videos where you fix up your house in cool ways.
Thumbs up on the drill index video idea. Your maker ideas and video style always make for a welcome bit of entertainment.
Best part was reusing the switch. So cool!
Great repurposing and you have a spare motor too! I would definitely like to see a tool holder or drill index added! I don't have a lathe, so I am envious. You might add interior cabinet lights to the switch just to illuminate the contents.

Excellent repurpose job. Gave me an idea for my little shop. Thanks!!
Well done for sure, your shop area is looking very nice, the last year or so, you've really spruced it up!
Pask, you could put a video up of you hanging out your washing and I'd probably watch it! Great project this - always good to see things being repurposed and done so well. Cheers.
very cool and the light was a great touch with the switch
Great project!! Love it!
You're right, until you have one, you don't realise how useful a lathe is.
I don't have a mill still, but I will one day soon hopefully!
Cheers!!
Awesome idea!! Having old tools taking up space is a big problem for most makers, and this is a really cool solution!!!
Wow. I feel like I'm learning so much about engineering right now. I feel soooooo clever.
This just kept getting cooler. - Love the light switch
love the repurposing and the function of that switch!
Very good.
Organization is everything.
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this video, from Florida ,,Blessings to you and your family.
New meaning to the term "bandsaw box"...Nicely done!
Love all of your videos. The environment you’ve created to work in is an inspiration! Would watch anything you put out so custom drilling decks heck yeah!
Thanks John! I'm really happy with how the workshop is evolving and I've just started a new project which will be a big upgrade. :)
It needs a custom fit shelf/cabinet in the empty space in between. I reckon that would look really slick and contrast well with the metal.
You never cease to amaze me with your talent and skill. Always enjoy your projects. Love the channel. God bless, stay safe. 🇺🇸♥️🌹
Do I have an old bandsaw kicking around? No
Do I even have a workshop? No
Do I even have or need any tools besides the handful I keep for fixing small stuff around my apartment? Also no
Am I watching because it is a Pask video and you never miss a video from this legend? Fuck yea!
Thank you for this work of art, I will be rewatching it many, many times.
Always like you’re practical creativity …… so of course we would love to see the drill index addition. 👍😎👍
Everything you do is interesting, and I find myself smiling while watching you! This is an especially fun project.
Thanks very much Arieh - glad you're enjoying the videos! :)
Great use of an old tool. That is one cool new Lathe you have there! Glad to see you enjoying working with it! Of course we want to see you make the center wall board.
That is an awesome way to repurpose a tool that isn't used. Great idea.😁👍
As always every work u do is great to see... so film everything ! Thanks for all Neil !
I love the creativity and variety in your videos.
Thank you for sharing.
The lathe is gorgeous.
That is so cool! Love that idea!
