Good evening fellers,
I have a Clark brand 4x6 metal cutting bandsaw that came with that sheetmetal stand. I got tired of bending over to use it. That and the cost of using it - 4 sutures in my ankle from that stupid sheetmetal stand.
Anyway, I got to measuring, cut up some steel & then pulled the saw apart. Rear wheels & casters came from the local Harbor Freight store on sale. Steel for the legs was scrap Stainless Steel 1x1.5" rectangular tubing. Axle from Home Depot are 5/8" x 5" grade 5 bolts & nuts.
I got out the 4.5" grinder, put my flap wheel on it & started grinding. After all the joints were prepped, the HH175 was used using flux core wire. I ended up with something like this.............. (the last pic is the original stand).
