Slowing Down The Band Saw

That's a great way to add multiple speeds to a band saw. The one-way bearing is a great idea and nice fix. Thanks for sharing. Bob
 
Very nice.

I'm looking for a vertical bandsaw but all I have been seeing are either wood saws or metal saws that people are asking crazy money for. The wood saws are the older types that are made nice and sturdy but too high in the rpms. I have a reducer, I think I still have it, kicking around here that I need to find and see what the reduction rate is. If so, I'm going to check out some of these older saws.
 
No there is no chance of shock as I use a switch to choose which motor runs and that selectively disconnects the other motor. There is only one plug to the outlet.
Thank you all again

NIce, I've been thinking of a Tredmill motor, as I have 2 wood band saws and no metal one. But maybe a new idea.
