Re: Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

Yes, it does. Thanks, Dusty! The long ones I have must be for a different special purpose tool. Any ideas? I will order the right ones tonight.

If you don't have plans for these tubes, I would cut just enough off to allow, alignment while maintaining full insertion into the Band saw, and the ...

Re: Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I am not trying to accuse the customer service department of poor performance, just stating that they weren't able to give the answer I needed at the time. I am sure my email was not perfectly written, and I may have been more successful in getting the info I ...

Re: Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

I have noticed this mechanical stop inside the bandsaw. I think it is interesting that the correct length mounting tubes (yours) do not go all the way to the stop. I would think it would be desirable to have the mounting tubes go all the way to this stop because they would also be going through the ...

Re: Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

I will have to take a picture when I am home later tonight. No, the power connector hubs do not align. And I do not have the Power Station. I am hoping someone can confirm the length of the mounting tubes so I can order the correct ones if mine turn out to be wrong. Shopsmith customer service would ...

Re: Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

Thanks for your reply. It doesn't matter which end goes into the bandsaw, the bandsaw still sits too high. I am wondering if the belt sander or other special purpose tool would use longer mounting tubes than the bandsaw. The only other special purpose tool I got with my Shopsmith is the jointer ...

Bandsaw Mounting Tube Question

I just bought a used model 510 that included a bandsaw. The mounting tubes that were included with my bandsaw seem to be too long. I have the newer style bandsaw with the aluminum table, and the mounting tubes are the one-piece die-cast tubes with an offset. The shorter portion of the tube is 2.125 ...
