I just wanted to give a plug for Iturra Designs. If you own a bandsaw or are in the market for some bandsaw upgrades, accessories, or Delta/Jet replacement parts, give these guys a call and order a catalog. They don't have a website, you'll need to call them up. Their catalog seems like more of a reference book than a sales pitch, so much useful information. It even includes histories of Delta and Jet, and a few in-depth comparisons (i.e. a 1940's Delta vs. a new Chinese-made Delta). Their prices are reasonable, too, and the guy I talked to on the phone was extremely helpful and knowledgable.

Iturra Designs
1-888-722-7078

Just to be clear, I have no personal or professional affiliation with them, I just got their catalog the other day and have been very impressed and thought I'd spread the word.

Interesting. Thanks for the good heads-up, Jon. I've started studying band-saws and how to modify them and such. This will prove very useful.Alain Desforges38881.4845949074
