    Doing up a band saw

    Well the new switch arrived from flea bay (broken) shame as it was the same but brand new in box, any ideas where I can get a switch and what type do I need, I looked on flea bay/wickes/tool station/screwfix but there is so many different types I have no idea, Thanks.

    I was hoping to keep the switch but from a safety point it will have to be replaced.

    Doing up a band saw

    Hi Robin, it would appear to be wood as the blades that came with it are for wood and everything is caked in sawdust, regards.

    Doing up a band saw

    Thank you Steve, the wheels are 12" not sure where to take the throat measurement from as the guide moves up and down (brand new at this) don't worry there will be a door on it before I use it in battle, might be made of wood but it will be a door, regards.
