- Hand Powered Band Saw Assembly and Detailed Views woodworking and machine video by Chop With Chris shows the assembly and function of this amazing contraption. I plan to add a treadle to make this foot powered. Although there is more to come I thought you would enjoy seeing the details of the machine. Chris

I just acquired this amazing machine! I plan to add a flywheel and treadle to make it foot powered but in the meantime I thought you would enjoy seeing the detailed assembly and function.
Chris
Awesome find Chris, would love to have one myself
Perfect, this is what I was thinking!
Really cool old tool. And it is obvious that it needs a flywheel and my old heavy duty Singer treadle. No you can't have it! LOL
I have 2 sitting in my garage of which I will use for parts!
@@ChopWithChris i have found a couple that were damaged by people not aware of the value of those old cast iron treadle sewing machines.
That looks like it was made for an apprentice of 10-14 to power it while the master does the work. Great piece of history Chris!
Exactly. Just no apprentice now so I need to add the treadle.
@@ChopWithChris I was thinking the wife would get the turning duties. LOL
She’s already declined!!
@@ChopWithChris hahahaha
@@ChopWithChris Hey! You could get the Leprechaun from Notre Dame. He is about the right height.
Very nice, when I was a young boy I saw a man powered shop that a guy built himself. It was so interesting. It was set into the side of a sand hill near the banks of lake Sam Rayburn, most of the shop was underground with the roof only extending above the earth a few feet. His name was Oscar and he was a remarkable craftsman that could build anything. He had a tablesaw, bandsaw, lathe, and a drill press if memory serves me correct. I was amazed and loved his shop.
Wow! I wish I could have soon that!
Please mount a wooden frame bike to and then you can pedal and cut. Thatd be a kickass video.
Good idea!
Thanks for preserving this and sharing it with us
Thanks and more to come.
Man-o-man that is one cobbled up craftsman special, combining pre 19th and early 20th century artifacts. steel wheels, wooden frame, pillow block bearings, the makers back story is probably as interesting as the saw. Another Chris classic in the making.
No doubt!!
Great find Chris, waiting on the following videos about this one. Thanks for sharing with us
On the way!
Time to check into after school work study programs for a work/study student needing hours.
:)
That is a very cool bit of kit! I'll bet you could dimension the whole thing and build one yourself. It'd be a great challenge.
No doubt!
Looking forward to see more of this! Nice Tool!
Thanks!
I would love one myself. I have been getting rid of my power tools and doing it a lot like yourself.
Have fun!
I can't wait to see more! incredible machine!👍👍
You won’t be disappointed!
What a fantastic machine. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
That's a beauty!! Love it!!
Thanks!
I'm always surprised to find out machines like this existed. It seems like something that would quintessentially be a power tool but here this is. Very neat!
More coolness on the way!
Outstanding!!
Thanks!
Very cool old machine!
Thanks
I’m so freakin excited to see this! I’m LITRA-LEE in the edge of my seat!!!
Great! You won’t be disappointed!
Really cool Chris! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thanks!
Hopefully you will convert it to a treadle powered version! How to make a good flywheel that gives some of the incredible power of gyroscopic effects.
Did you hear if the Besslar Wheel. Too bad we couldn't synchronize and lock onto that concepts workings or bring the man through directly!😂
Sure did!
really nice find
For sure!
Thanks for sharing that
You are most welcome
What an awesome find my friend, this band saw is pretty much begging to be restored and altered to fit your needs. I cannot wait to see your next videos on this. Keep up the good work my friend :)
Thanks!!!
Awesome video bud, keep it up.
Thanks
Have you ever wanted to"retrofit" modern equipment to man powered? Great saw btw, can't wait to see the project that comes next..
That would be cool!!
Nice video, Chris.
Looks great, the band saw.
Hmm, you need someone to turn the handwheel. If you want to saw something.
I need an apprentice! I’m going to add a treadle and flywheel.
Hello Chris,
Thanks for the answer.
That is an amazing piece. I could see some easy mods to make it powered and a bit safer. (wanna keep all the fingers.)
Tell me please!
@@ChopWithChris a off set motor Maybe with a step down for more power then speed. (don't know how the sprockets would hold up to high speed) then perhaps a thick Plexiglas cover for the blade and wheels (so you can still see it but you don't bump into them. Again sexy piece I have never seen one like that with all the key pieces.
Thanks!
@@ChopWithChris I hope it helps on that same note you could get an apprentice to hand crank it just for giggles.
👍🏻
very cool. I think it's wise to make it foot powered. seems difficult to man the wheel while holding wood to be sawn. would be a 2 person operation at least.!
For sure!
Great job! Would probably be much easier to operate with a heavier fly wheel / gear
I’ll be installing one. Stay tuned!
Gostei muito
Obrigado!
بتوفيق صديقي 🙂✔️👌
👍🏻
I like old things that were once great. That looks like it wouldn't work when it was new.
Stay tuned. It’s going work great when I am done with it.
definitely a treadle and I'd add a decent flywheel to help the momentum.
For sure!
That's Freekin' Awesome Chris!
No doubt!
Hey Chris!! How do you deal with termites, I dont see them that much but recently got a batch of oak that seems to have a lot!! So I wanted to ask you ??
I bug bomb the risky stuff before I bring it into my house. Actually if I think there are termites in it then I just toss it. Not worth the risks
Consider a bit of wood grease for the bolts that go through the wood.
👍🏻
You could get some bearings for the blade guides and maybe a foot peddle so you have both hands on the wood. Just a thought. Where did you find this work of art?!?
My uncle got it at n auction years ago. That’s all I know. I’m going to add a treadle for sure.
That’s awesome! Always nice to get a piece like this from a family member!
What a great tool 😍!! But hang on how are you meant to use it?? Was it designed to have a child turn the wheel while the master cuts?? I would definitely add a freewheel to turn it into a foot powered bandsaw. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing
For sure it required an apprentice. I’m designing the treadle and will do a video on it when complete.
I will be waiting for that 😃 👍
Must have got the saw from Mr Chickadee,no audio just a working video. Don't need all that anoying music some videos have. Nice find!
I thought people would like the “ Mr Chickadee” version.
Hi, Chris. How are you? This machine is very interesting. I didn't quite understand how it is operated. Do you need two people to work with her? One person drives the lower wheel and the other pushes the wood? What is the approximate weight of the machine? Thank you and congratulations for the excellent purchase.
Doing well!!! The machine is meant for a young apprentice to drive the bottom while the teacher used it. I’m looking forward to restoring it. Take care!!
That's quite a find. Any idea how old it is?
100+ years for usre
Man Chris. Get a socket wrench, buddy. 🤓
And do a collaboration video with Mattias to build a stiff frame to hold your wheels. That’d be so cool
Matthias?
Chop With Chris Matthias Wandel!
Figures a wood worker would use a crescent wrench to assemble an antique bandsaw!!!! Lol
Exactly!
You need like a nice heavy flywheel for that thing
I have 5 of different sizes ready to go!
Perfect then lol
Do I feel a restore video coming in the future?
A video is coming!!
hi, not very practical nor safe, i bought a nice one a month back, and its doing a good job .( PORTER-CABLE 13.625-in 10-Amp Stationary Band Saw ) i bought it @ lowes
Glad it works for you
Ripe for a treddle
Stay tuned!
Chris I am new here, what's with the yellow shirts?
Jaxwagen They are from some little community college he is a fan of.
I am a big fan of a college called Notre Dame so I have lot of their shirts. I decided a long time ago to dress the same in every video so I had a consistent look and get use out of all the yellow shirts I have.
Now all you have to do is hunt down a hand powered tablesaw
Or make one...
Like your videos but this one would have benefited from a bit of audio - where is it from, what is the vintage, any info on the background, etc. Keep up the good work.
More to come on that in a future video.
wd-40 bath! olease
Yep
Is that from Harbor Freight? lol
Ha!
I don't want to say anything bad, this is just a question:
Why do you refuse to use power tools? Why is it better for you to spend way more time and effort with something that can be done much more easily? In my view, if the end result is exactly the same, but you can achieve it much easier and more efficiently, why would you choose the harder way? It just doesn't make sense. Our ancestort would have used powertools for woodworking if they've had the technology back then
Thanks for the question. Woodworking is a hobby for me. I like to challenge my mind and body to make things using no electrical power tools. It is a stress relief from my day job and keeps me in shape. All my projects things that I want, not need so there is no deadline to complete them. If had to make money doing woodworking the of course I would use power tools.
@@ChopWithChris Thanks for your reply. I also do woodworking as a hobby and really enjoy it. But I find no pleasure in doing it with handtools, if I have the option of using powertools. I can understand you and not understand you at all at the same time :)
👍🏻😄
I a bit crazy!!
It makes an interesting youtube channel.
Wouldn't it work better if it was foot powered?
Yep! I’m going to add a treadle and flywheel. Likely a young apprentice would turn the wheel while the carpenter used it.
@@ChopWithChris that's what I figured...... Thanks for sharing this great piece of history with us!
Sorry, looks like firewood to me.
Well it would make a hell of a fire!
For fucks sake man, edit out the squeaking. My ears hurt
As part of the restoration I will oil it up!
@@ChopWithChris I meant when you where tightening the nuts and bolts. My poor ears ran away in pain
