Planos para la construcción en madera de una sierra sin fin de banco

1. HIS bandsaw, made largely of %-in. fir
Tplywood, has a 12-in. swing, a tilting
. table and cuts 2-in. stock with ease and
accuracy. If it is carefully constructed,so
that both wheels are in perfect alinement,

-.- For the base and core of the vertical

used. The pattern for thispart is laid out
on a piece of heavy wrapping paper, as in
Fig. 3. Cut the piece about I/s in. oversize,
to Leave emugh stock for finishing. The
plywood ,sides are then cut to size and
glued to the core, using casein glue, after
which additional strength at the edges is
obtained by driving in wood screws. After
the glue has dried, the edges of the £rame

W e wheels are bhilt up of four 12-in. The hubs for the wheels and pulley are
