Those are only horizontal and they cost the same as the saw. Its no business really..

I see, Thank you for posting. It should help me with imagining something. -Peter

Would you be able to post a picture or two of it? Anything will be good to kick start my imagination. It sounds like a good mod though. -Peter

Hm thank you for posting those, i've seen those but I wouldn't know how to make those... I also don't have any real metal laying around. I might have a piece of sheet metal somewhere but thats as far as it goes when it comes to large metal. I also have a very small supply of wood. -Peter

Thank you very much, i think i'll do that.

True but it is in mint and in my area milwaukee sells pretty expensive. I mean a 4 year old banged up machine with missing chips will go for 150-170 when it originally costs 250-300. Alright, but where do I start? -Peter

Do you know anywhere I can find plans for this table and stand. I have no idea where to start personally. I've looked everywhere online and I can only find pictures of what people have made. -Peter

I just bought a milwaukee 6230N portable band saw from craigslist. It's brand new, even has the plastic on it and the box is still in perfect shape. I got it for 100$. This model is about 270-300$ new from a store. I looking for a metal cutting band saw and I thought this would be a good...

Hahaha! makes total sense! I think I might just stick with the the milwaukee for metal and maybe some occasional wood. But for cutting scales I will use a mitter box.

I decided to go with a Milwaukee 2630N model for 100. I don't know if i should sell it for more and get a harbor freight with warranty or make a table for it and go with it.

Thank you -Pedro

Could you please explain how it works and what the grind height means? I'm a newbie :P -Pedro

Would it be able to cut thick blocks smoothly?

I didn't understand the terms in the first half of the second paragraph. but thank you very much. If this milwaukee isn't right i'm thinking of selling it for higher and going for a harbor freight metal bandsaw and trying something with that. What jig would that be? -Pedro

Would a harbor freight metal band saw work better than that milkwaukee saw with a table?

What will I do with the rest after its done? By the wood in the middle. These are pretty decent blocks. -Pedro

Thank you for that imput but, What is re-surface? A rip fence should be TOO hard to make. What do you mean by cut surface? -Pedro

I understood most of that. (Sorry for my slow understanding). Do you have to do this every time you cut a scale? The blocks I have right now are semetrical.

I don't understand what you mean by clean up? as in make it smooth??? -Pedro

I need a bandsaw to resaw some wooden blocks into wood scales for handles and big bandsaws are just too much. I found an offer on Craigslist for a Milwaukee 2630N model brand new For 100$. I figured I could get a metal and wood bandsaw two in one if I build a stand for it. My question is...
