I found these other examples of Gilliom Manufacturing bandsaws by websurfing. Two are 18" and one is a 12" model. Greg Wandless, owner of the grey 18", told me that he built his 25 years ago. He uses it for resawing veneers, making lumber, etc. He also told me that he modified the plans to a fixed table, instead of a tilt table, as 99% of his cuts are at 90 degrees. That's one of the advantages of a kit built saw: if you need to make the table larger or smaller, you can, as well as any other modifications you'd like to make to suit your particular needs. The 12" saw is the only example I've seen. It would be interesting to see if any of the other OWWMers have machines of this type, kit built, that is. If anyone has any of the other kit built models: lathe/drill press combo, belt sander, shaper, etc. Please post them to the site.
