Bandsaw, table saw, planer thicknesser Out of action

#1

All of the above tools are not to be used by anyone until the @woodtechs have passed them as safe to use (hopefully end of play Saturday 25th August)

Hi Mark,

Is the bandsaw still out of action? If so do you know when it might be back in service?

Cheers

Sorry Adam we are waiting for a price on the new pulley … I need to chase them up!

We could always turn it on the lathe :wink:

#4

Haha, is the pulley big? Might be able to turn it elsewhere. And are the tablesaw/thicknesser still not working too?

#5

No worries.

:smiley:

Yeah, do you have the old pulley still?

#6

Yes it is in the workshop somewhere either @CriticalTolerance @Jonty_Bottomley Will know where it is

#7

It’s a 2.5" pulley - should be on the bandsaw in the woodshop or on the planer/thicknesser right next to it (unless Jonty has tidied it away).

#8

The P/T is still out of action, yes - what was a minor mechanical fault was exacerbated by continued use and now we have a motor fault which will be non-trivial to mix. I think Joe and Mark are costing options for this.

Sending a prayer for the P/T and bandsaw to the big technician in the sky.
