I have an old Continental Ulticut 14" bandsaw. The tires are pretty old and last month really loosened up. There is a posting on here about that.
I ordered new ones from Delta for a 14". That order went in on April 4 and FINALLY today (May 6) they arrived.
Down to the shop I ran with the new tires in hand. Open the saw and remove the old ones. The new ones just slip right on and off the other side again. They're too big! A more accurate measurement reveals that the wheels are about 13 5/8! Of course, with the
1/4" tires that are on there it is 14, but not without them.Anyone have any ideas? For the moment I have the old tires back on, and the new ones ontop of them. It does make the blade hit the guard (and I can't adjust that).
Does anyone know of a place I can get some odd-sized tires or the actual wheel size of some non-delta 14" machines?
