[@BrothersMake]

[@MaltandMake]

[@jpwoodwork]

[@MaltandMake]

Cheers!

[@MoonshineMetalworks]

Lovely stuff. Short and sweet, like a ....short sweet... thing.

[@BrothersMake]

MoonshineMetalworks liquorice all-short?

[@MaltandMake]

Cheers matey!

[@MaltandMake]

Liquorice... eugh! Maybe bonbonbonbons though!

[@MikeTheMaker1]

Going with the aluminum was a solid call.

[@MaltandMake]

Thanks, I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I might give brass a go at some point too.

[@Tinkerneering]

Nice to see you again James. Great video.

[@MaltandMake]

It's good to be back, thanks for watching!

[@WorksbySolo]

James, you’ve got me rethinking my bandsaw insert. I was going to model and 3D print in plastic, but I really like the al-u-min-i-um version that you made. Thanks for sharing!

[@MaltandMake]

Thanks, let me know if you can't find any in the US and I'll send you some over!!

[@NomasterCreations]

That's going to last quite a while. the insert for your machine looks more sturdy than my whole bandsaw!

[@MaltandMake]

Haha! Well part of me wants it to wear out so I can try making it again... or maybe I should just make one preemptively.

[@MrGeoffreySmith]

That bandsaw it a beautiful beast 🤩

[@MaltandMake]

It really is! I've got a video in the works about how I got it to run on single phase.

[@TandaMadison]

Definitely time for me to do this again. Much like your old one, my current zero clearance insert is... well more like a 2.73 clearance insert. Nice build!

[@MaltandMake]

Editing this I thought I need to do this for my other bandsaws too... it's amazing how long you can get by with something rather than fixing it!

[@FigmentsMade]

Shiny! Also, nice calipers.

[@MaltandMake]

So shiny! They're fun aren't they!

[@kjellski]

Uuuhhhh, filthy, you made its replacement with it in... 😋 Jokes aside, exactly how you described it man: quick to watch, but not a bit less pleasant! Awesome visual capture 👌🏼

[@MaltandMake]

I know it's like tool-ception! Glad you enjoyed it. It was a fun one to put together!

[@AndyCPugh]

Nice work sir!

[@MaltandMake]

Thank you!

[@CorsoWorkshop]

Hey James! Great video! This is so interesting! :D Great job!

[@MaltandMake]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@MyroCraft]

I like your channel. That's cool👌😉👍👍👍

[@MaltandMake]

Thanks!

[@JohnMadeit]

Is that how you talk to your patients. "Sorry Mr Smith we are gonna have to amputate one of those bits" 😂. Nice video

[@MaltandMake]

No, I'm much ruder!

[@JohnMadeit]

@@MaltandMake haha

[@starkravinglunatic]

Why did you do it that way? What is the difference between a duck?

[@MaltandMake]

Because that's the way it's done! The difference is a water fowl or halfway to a fall.
