Build Your Own Bandsaw

[GarageWoodworks]

If you have never seen any of this guys videos on YouTube, check them out. I have a link to his site on my webpage and I am constantly amazed when I visit his site.

Yeah, that guy is pretty sick. I stole a couple of his mobile base ideas, a while back. I was surprised when *he* subscribed to *my* youtube channel. :-)

Not as suprised when subscribed though right? :^]

I once built an 18" band saw from a Gilliom Mfg kit.

Thanks for sharing that link. Very cool project with some pretty clever problem solving.

I wish this was in English, the Finnish translators don't do a very good job.

This guy has some good stuff, I particularly like this:

You need the 'spinach' translator.



lousy on other languages, but, ss Popeye says, "its good to the Finnish!"

Unfortunately most finns doing woodworking are over 50 and don't speak english at all (German language was more popular than English then and many don't speak foreign languages at all, this Pekka is evidently at least able to read English [most finns are better with writen English than spoken]). Automatic translators don't (and can't, IMO) work with our language due to several reasons:

1) we use suffixes instead of prepositions. 2) the body of a word can change with suffixes 3) no future tense 4) lots of compound nouns

This same guy has made his own table saw/sanding machine and a sharpening machine. Tretty impressive, I think.

My mother's family spoke Finnish. They used it as code so the kids couldn't listen in on their "adult-talk" (much more permanent than s-p- e-l-l-i-n-g). She was the last of the family and none of the grandchildren spoke it, by design, so that was the end of it.
