I am now needing to sort out an old Burgess bandsaw. I sold a good Proxxon one recently and now find, inevitably, that I need one again.

Apparently Vol 170 issue 3944 & vol 172 issue 3962 have articles on improving them, but despite having lots of back numbers and scans, those aren´t amongst them.

Can anyone assist please ?

TIA

Peter

Hi Peter

I have sent you message and a link to my blog regarding the various work I have done on the BK3 including the notes you mention above. I have also replaced the drive wheel for both the motor drive and the main wheel.
