What Did You Buy Today?

Jacobs No14 Super Chuck. Should compliment my Albrechts nicely.



Need to replace the MT4 arbour with an MT2 one. Anyone know off hand what the taper is?

My old Jacobs catalog shows a 3JT for the 14N chucks.

Found this old RF-115 model saw.
A bit rough but for $100 I thought why not.

Nice score. I had an Enco branded RF-128, not sure what the difference is with the RF-115 but it looks similar. I also paid $100 but I got lucky & mine was in really nice condition. You did well, should clean up nice. I've seen HF saws in much worse condition go for much more than $100 around here.

It was a great saw that I miss. Lots of mods people have done on these & they still make em so parts shouldn't be an issue if you ever need. Here's one thread that I started to give you ideas but there are other threads here too.

Enco / RF-128 4x6 Bandsaw Mods

When I got my first mini lathe I quickly learned that cutting bar stock with the strong arm method was not going to last long. I was going to pick a HF bandsaw until my buddy found me a used bandsaw locally an Enco 4x6 which is a RF-128, made in Tawain. It was practically never used, just sat in...

Nice. I've aways wondered if there was a difference between the older No.14 & 14N chucks. Now I see the difference, thanks for posting those pics.

I could not resist the indexing dividing head, this one:
I hope the quality is reasonable.
It's due on Monday Mar. 2nd.

Ordered, should arrive in a day or three. I don't know if they are 5C or R8, I suspect R8. Didn't really need them though they can be used. But it looked like a good price, too good to pass up. $12 bux, what can I say?

@Winegrower You won't be disappointed. It isn't the fit and finish of an actual B&S, but it's proven to be a useful and capable tool just the same.

Looks like R8 to me. Amazing price, just over a buck piece!
