I would be happy to, tell me brand of the saw. Pretty sure they are all the same really. Give me some information as how I might be of help. I can give pictures, part number of the jack shaft, and associated information.

It is an easy mod over all.

So the ball is now in your corner. How about some info? and we'll ask him for some pics of his. If you have a pic or two of yours it may be helpful.
Getting a picture is difficult as I am still in hospital, but the saw is a King Canada 14" wood bandsaw made in the late 1980's. It looks very much like the one shown on the King Canada website https://www.kingcanada.com/en/produc...th-resaw-guide.
My main interest is to see how Pepi converted his to reduce the blade speed, his method of determining how much reduction is needed, whether modifications are needed to the blade guide, tips on blade selection and overall, seeing if his method will work on my saw. Thanks in advance.
