anyone familiar with Jet bandsaw JBS-14MW?
Gerald Hinson
used and am considering buying it, but would like some info on it.
Specifically, can I increase its height using riser blocks like on the
new Jet 14" bandsaws? Also, if anyone knows the hp of the motor, that
would be interesting as well.
Other info welcome.
Thanks,
-gerald hinson

riser block, carter guides and Timberwolf blades. Glides through everything
that I have ever tried! The biggest thing I've cut is to resaw some 10" wide
ash.

Which Timberwolf blade is it? The AS-S or the special veneer resaw
one?

Maybe we should spam the group rec.music.bandsaw.nine-fingers.
Oh, oh, disregard that.

I get the heebee jeebies every time I put one of those 3tpi blades on the
bandsaw. I feel it just wants to grab me and cut off my poor defenseless
fingers. I usually cut myself just getting the blade on. Think what it
would do if you stuck your finger in there while it was running. Burrrrr!

I'll show you sometime what it does.
It's quick, quite painful and an injury that lasts a lifetime.

I used to use a bandsaw to cut meat. It's quick, easy, and it does an
excellent job.

In seriousness. I have never cut myself with a power tool: never shot a nail through my
hand with a pneumatic hammer, never got myself with a band saw or table saw etc. I have,
though, injured myself sufficiently with things that do not plug in to either air or
electricity.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours. Mine: what happens when you stick
your forefinger in a running jointer? Zzzzzzzzzttttt. Not fun.

I'll see your jointer and raise you a die-casting press (800°F, 4000tons of
pressure)

4000 tons of pressure?
Pretty hefty.
Worse than having Draper step on your foot when dancing.
You wanna see something funny, you ought to see that big dope dance.
Looks like a pregnant cow on ice.

We recently had a girl cut her left hand off in a bandsaw at a local HS.
Luckily they could re-attach it. What was really strange is that her lawyer
must have coached her on what to say. All she said was, It wasn't her
fault, "if the guard had not been defective, it would have prevented her
from sticking her hand in the blade and she wouldn't have cut her hand off."
I have never seen a "guard" on a bandsaw blade. There was no mention of the
blade coming off the wheel. Generally, what you stick into the blade gets
cut. Can you spell "lawsuit"?
With all your descriptions of injuries, you guys are creeping me out!

OK, I'll see your whateverthatthing is and raise you a 1971 Honda 305 Dream
(Nightmare) at 65 mph head-on into a car also going 65 mph. Beat that,
willya.

every time someone talks about a machine related tragedy.....
My shop teacher in high school once told me to be a great woodworker you had
to die at a ripe old age with all your fingers.

I've still got all my fingers, but they don't work the same way that
they used to.
My father always told me, "Never trust a man that doesn't have all his
fingers. He had to stick that hand somewhere it didn't belong to lose
one".

I nearly lost my hand. It sounds like you nearly lost your life.

Very very nearly. It was a long time ago. But I still feel the
repercussions (physically, and probably otherwise). Had surgery just a
couple months ago ostensibly to remove some of the metal from my left arm.
After an OR experience that reminded me of Keystone Cops (the surgeon, one
of the best there is, showed up with a bag full of screwdrivers from the
hardware store), they gave up and sewed me back up. I haven't tried to fly
since the new airport procedures were enacted. Could be interesting.
