Double Duty Saw
A band saw which provides the advantages of a circular saw bench with a band saw blade doing the work in place of a circular blade is designed and manufactured in Australia by Ripley Machines.
A different type of main frame and ball bearing guides provide versatili ty. It offers a vertical cut as well as straight line cutting. The development of this concept, together with greater table area, won an Australian Design Award in 1978.
Instead of being supported bY a vertical pillar, the top frame is held diagonally, allowing 36" free space between the blade and the frame. This advantage is increased by a sliding table.
The band saw will handle panels uP to 24" wide and will cross cut any length of 15" material. The unit is powered by a rubber mounted, fully enclosed 1.5 hp three phase or single phase electric motor.
A single hinged guard gives access for blade changes and adjustment. A direct reading tension scale for any blade from 0.125" to 0.75" in thickness is built into the machine.
