Thread: I need some direction on my first restore

Looks good to me!

Now send it to me.

Great job for your first time mate!
I've just finished getting the "so called" functional bandsaw that I bought on ebay to work (I bought a 8 year old model that is no longer in production, with snapped tyres that the seller said were available from the hardware store, they were not, so I had to find a suitable replacement and then learn how to take the wheels off and everything and then put everything back together and mount the blade back on without any instruction manual and minimal mechanical experience.)

These pictures have inspired me to start sketching out shapes for rescaling my bengall! I picked up some nice Horn blanks but their a bit too small (5'') so i might just use them for making wedges, I also bought some African Wenge and Burl blanks.

The white oak looks really nice I might try and find some for myself I've got a razor with cracked scales I think it would suit nicely.
