100 Year Old Band Saw PART 1. Motor, Pulley, Belt Guard Fabrication

I update an old wood bandsaw to include a motor, some guards, and much more. This Yerkes Bandsaw existed in the 1920s being driven off a line shaft in a factory. I’ll make this my own and customize it with some flair, all while not losing its antique feel. In part one, I work on a pulley, a belt, a motor, and a pulley guard; I used the Mach 500 Flow Waterjet, Acer Milling Machine, DoAll Bandsaw, Victor Radial Drill, and Esab Welder. Stick around for part two to see how I tackle the guards! fireball tool bui
