So old-school! Love it.

Oh yeah! Saturday morning chop with Chris. Thanks!

Amazing Chris, i love this project ❤️

This is awesome Chris! Great job!

Hej Chris, You did a fine job to make this saw work! Transmissions working good as well!, enjoy the vid's

Always a good treat when one of your videos comes out

Awesome job. Loved the video and watched it with my soon-to-be seven year old daughter. She pointed out though that you put your assistant out of a job with that foot pedal. I guess everyone is laying people off during quarantine... 😂😂😂

Great job Chris, thanks for sharing. Fred

Lot of work but you cracked it and its a very gren band saw to use in these troubled times, well done Chris.

Its so awesome to see someone so dedicated to giving new life to old technology with as much excitement as you have. Very humbling to watch your videos thanks. Ive been tinkering around with steam engines and designing some shop equipment to be powered by steam. Its either going to be an awesome success or a spectacular failure. I dont see many people still working with steam in a shop setting. Its like that era of human advancement has been forgotten. Thanks again

So jelley! I want!!

I like how you rescued treadle parts from a table when most people go the other way. Good video cool project!

was a band saw, now is a super band saw. exelente

That is fantastic. I love older machinery. I remember hand cranking an old shearing machine for the shepherd on the farm where i grew up to flatten the backs of the tups/rams ready for the farm shows. Love what your do.

Thanks for sharing that, fun things!

Great build, big heavy perimeter weighted wheel really did it justice.

Excelent!!!!! 👏👏👏👏

The strength of inertia ! Well done !

This is awesome. Unsolicited suggestion: bike parts. Specifically from the rear axle assembly of a 10 speed. Possibly use the chain drive so you can change gears to adjust speed of cut but definitely use the coast feature so the wheel will turn without you pumping the treadle. This way you can make precise cuts without it swaying or moving or even you moving unduly. Just pump it up to speed, coast, and cut. If you leave it as is it'll STILL be wonderful, though.

I have to keep telling myself that I don't have space for something like this. You have me thinking of heading to a local flea market this weekend.

Superb! What a great project!

Like a boss 👍 I'm French and I work in the sawmill, I love your videos

It's like that thing was made for you. Very satisfying

Very inspirational. A true 1800 's Carpenter

Love it Chris. Great work.

Awesome man!!! You are an inspiration!!!! I love your videos and can’t wait to see this thing in action in more videos!!

that was pretty awesome Chris!!!

I forgot to mention I used Evaporust to clean-up the flywheels.

I love the honesty in your videos mate!! Really interesting and learn something new EVERY TIME! Please keep them coming🙂🙂👍

This is fantastic!!!

I was looking up sewing machines... this is so awesome.

SUWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had a big grin the whole time. I have a Silver No. 1 post drill waiting for a little TLC (its in really nice shape already) and to get my hand tool shop space built.

My man, excellent job and video!

What a cool bit of kit, great job. Loved the drill too. Best of all is no music so you can hear all the shop sounds 👍

This is amazing ! Ive always wanted to make a foot pedalled lathe. Yours is beautiful.

Hey Chris, this is awesome! I liked it so much I’m going to ‘attempt’ to make one of my own so I’ve watched these two vids about a hundred times to keep myself right 😂. Really love the channel! Sending best wishes from Scotland.

that is really cool. Not the ideal tool but it gets the job done. Perfect for those power outage storm days in the shop!

When you said it works o see your face so happy 😊

Старые станки это супер. Лайк1

Brilliant presentation with the use of fast forwards and normal speeds to capture every detail. Change the size of the flywheel to suit the thicknesa of the timber priceless. This guy puts shaky hand held phone captured videos in the rubbish bin where they belong. When there is an Oscar for You Tube Videos This is number one on the list.

With a flea market and junk yard that you have makes you one very lucky fellow!

Super wheels very nice! I like fantastic! Tanks very match!

Brilliant!

When I saw you starting in on that old saw I thought uh oh this is going to be one of those let's "restore" this lovely old tool by removing all it's history and patina and ruin it type deals. But no, just the opposite. It's like the spirit of the original builder was somehow passed down to you. Wonderful stuff.

Truly incredible! Making your own tools is becoming a slippery slow haha. Soon you will be buying a farm with a river and making a giant bandsaw mill powered by the river to mill your own trees all in your own hand-built workshop!

Safety advice! On this really cool flywheel, you might want to consider adding wood, glass, or plastic inserts inside the open spaces in each wheel. Those gears and the flywheel move very fast and with a lot of force. It's a very good idea to prevent yourself (and everyone else) from breaking their fingers by accidentally putting them between those spinning bars. Stay safe!

You are so creative and do a super good job as a 'craftsman', you have my respect and recognition. It's one of my favorite channels. Best regards from Germany.

I wish I had one of those parts bins!!!! They’ve gotten crazy expensive of late!

Very cool,let me think about how most of these machines operated back in the day

Nice repower :-) that heavier flywheel definitely made a difference

Fantástico. Excelente. Parabéns.

I'd have been tempted to get one of those mahoosive gears to use as the flywheel. ***hour later the saw finally stops***

Love it!

Fantastic !!!

Chop essa máquina é magnífica!!!!

Nice transformation. Would love to shop at flywheel store. What a goldmine.

Wonderful! I wish to find an antique one myself

Nice saw

I've watched this twice now and am amazed and how clever you are in not only putting this back to functional use but also increasing the RPMs with the gear changes. With respects to the gear changes...how do you determine that the teeth on two separate gears will mate up, is it trial and error or is it obvious once looking at them? thansk...

Awesome mate. 👌

Its amazing!!!

Awesome!

Awesome!!

Gets the job done 👍

Wondefull job!!!

I think it awesome!!!

yeah sick

Good work Done 👍

Very neat!

Amaysing, good boy .

excelente trabajo! admirable

Good job, bro!

Bravo !!

просто красавчек🖒🖒🖒

Muito bom mesmo criatura um grande abraço e parabéns mais um inscrito

Hola me gusta tu trabajo admiro tu trabajo

nice work

Very well done and great video. :) You may want to add a couple of T-slots and a fence too. (the T-slot will be very helpful if you need to use a circle-cutting-jig). There are so many advantages in having human-powered tools, including ... Less noise, works if there's a power outage, does not add to the electricity bill and gives good workout. -Plus an electrical powered bandsaw is much more dangerous than a human-powered one, because if you have an accident, the human-powered one stops, whereas the other one doesn't. Your video makes me think I might even be able to build a bandsaw from scratch.

How cool done well shaggy

Nice!

Que projeto maravilhoso, parabéns ganhou um inscrito parabéns,,🇧🇷

Amazing job, Chris. Alive and improved band saw. Please, do you know the year it was made? Enjoy your machine and thanks for sharing.

Cool!

This is amazing! I need one of these. And I need that pillar drill too. How can I find this stuff? More must have been built. Can I build it out of wood?

Hell of a lot better than the hand wheel without any flywheel😉

Excelente adaptación.

too cool ,

O resultado foi excelente!!! Mas eu prefiro uma eletrica!!! Parabéns, linda maquina!!! 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Sympathetic yet pragmatic restoration very nicely done . New sub here...........Cheers

Oh wow friend this is good

Muito bom, parabéns!

Красавчик 👍👍👍

Chris, great video. I enjoy seeing your process and how this was/could/can be done without power. Any chance I could get the name/location of the junk yard that had the massive gears? Sister in law has a project that could use some like that, but I've not found any.

Güzel bir iş eline sağlık

You'll have legs like Usain Bolt if you use that saw all summer. Nice job.

Man that is awesome just watched this video and the one where you made the lathe. How do you know what size fly wheel and gears to use. I would like to have more understanding of stuff like this and to build my own workshop using tools like this. Point me in the right direction please.

Very good my friend ... I'm from Italy

Комментарий в поддержку канала и ролика, а также труда мастера.

Chris, did you use Delrin for the blade guide? Also, it may be possible to cut metal with this foot-powered saw with the correct blade.

Nice video, Chris. Super nice job. The translation looks great. Take care and stay healthy.
