Couple of small projects

Finally got around to making a stand for my Milwaukee portable bandsaw. Used ideas from several others on YT. Incorporated a clamp on table for quick conversion back to portable use. In use as a stationary tool I jig tie the switch and connect my foot pedal switch.

Also welded up a toe jack from my metal scraps. Uses a 4 ton jack, will lift anything I have. Need to make some machinery skates to go with the jack.

Nice, I like your sanders too. Is the smaller one from Lee Valley?

Good eye, yes it is. I have owned it for nearly 25 years, been a great little work horse.

Nice set-up! I'm really considering a portable band saw for cutting aluminum extrusions.

VERY NICE, I copied blondihacks and made a vise mount only model.
Happy Halloween !

Looks good Gerry. I need to make one of those portaband holders now that I have two. I have an older one that is a work horse, and was just given a newer style like yours. I can't decide which one to dedicate to vertical though. I'm leaning towards the older one as it's a bit heavier. Toe jack look great too. Very handy thing to have around.
