NEW TOOLS & PORTABLE FIREPIT

I picked up a Delta 31-255X Type 1 Drum Sander and a 14 inch wood/metal cutting band saw model WA-14N. I do have to do a repair on the band saw. I built a redneck portable firepit to help get rid of brush. Instead of hauling brush to a burn pile we just tow the firepit to the brush. It works very well.

That's actually a pretty slick idea, it saves having charcoal/ash piles all over the place, and you can claim it's "contained" when the neighbors get nosy, lol!

My wife didn't understand what this was for. Then we used it and she said "that's way better than hauling brush to the back". I told her I'm actually a "genius", I just look like an idiot. Thanks Everett

Nice find Randy.

[@JourneymanRandy]

New tools are always more motivating to get out in the shop. Should be fun. Spring is on hold here, two inches of snow today. Thanks Randy.

[@ChrisLoganToronto]

Good to see you back at it Randy. That's a cool sander. I might be interested when you decide to sell it.

[@JourneymanRandy]

Thanks Chris, its been a long winter. I'm happy its spring time even though we are getting five cm of snow today.

I've got the same bandsaw, the parts are available through Busy Bee, and King Canada. Don't buy the pins... Factory replacement is sheared hot rolled... I made mine out of old drill bits. The other part was just less than $20...

[@JourneymanRandy]

Good info Tim. I would have thought parts would be unavailable because its so old. Thanks buddy.
