Cheapest, Easiest Portable Bandsaw Stand
This wall mount enables you to use the bandsaw in an upright position so it does not take up any space on your table.

The Ultimate Portable Bandsaw Stand Build. No tools are necessary to mount and dismount the saw, it sets up in seconds and it's aligned perfectly every time. This is a great beginner project and a great DIY do it yourself project so you can get dual uses out of your band saw tool.

Really liked this idea and design.
Got myself a portable bandsaw a couple weeks back to be used in my tiny sheed im setting up and i want it eithee wall mounted or bench mounted and seeing as i have a 3d printer this is an easy and cool way of doing it.

Now i have a different brand of saw but i might be able to use this design anyway, best case it work, worst case i will waste a couple of bucks 8n filament.

And if it doesnt fit i can try use this as inspiration and try make my own cad dedign for my saw model.

Again great video.

Now, if only I had a 3D printer …

I did basically the same thing, but I used a block of wood and did a lot of carving 😉

Thanks for the video!! These saws are so handy, mounting them makes them so much more useful!!

Thanks for the video and sharing the design. So you or anyone reading is aware, the step file you shared for the top hanger "saw handle 6" is a mirror image of what is needed and shown in your video. It is also the single piece design, which is fine by me. I'll go and reprint it as a mirror and look forward to trying it out.

Nice. Now if only I had a DeWalt saw. One suggestion - take the plate you removed from the saw and screw it to the mount so you can always find it later if you need it.

Great design and build. It appears to be well thought out and made.
Thanks for sharing.

Very interesting project, well done. If I had a Dewalt I'd print then, I've got a Milwaulkee, LOL! Thank you for the informative video.

I'd print this up. But I have a Bauer portaband from Harbor Freight. The handle is different.

Ray, I want to saw something nice before I provide any negative critiques, ... so I'll say I love that you're a fellow Canadian and that you work in a teaching capacity because that experience clearly comes across in your videos. BTW, ever notice that Canadians are more likely to use the brand name magic marker" to refer to the generic product the felt tipped pen, while americans are more likely to say sharpie?

So complaint number one, I've got a Milwaukee saw like so many others too. In fact I have 3 portable Milwaukee bandsaws. One reason for the number of saws was to address the potential desire to dismount a saw quickly for use in the field.

Years ago I looked at the many different styles of conversions and decided to go with a table mount over the wall mount, because we were also planning a welding table and because we mostly needed to cut long lengths of structural tubing for our welding projects and wanted to have option to add external supports for long tube.

I designed a similar table to that used by @brianoltrogge. I ended up with a very rigid and stable mount with a two external tables that mounts to our welding table when needed for projects which have a lot of cutting. These mount to the grid in our welding table and dismount in seconds, but the table plate does take a bit longer to remove from the saw hence the decision to just leave it attached to the saw. Depending on a person's shop set up I'm sure that external work supports could be added to a wall mounted saw as well. It doesn't in our shop where wall space is at premium.

Complaint number 2, I don't like your idea of break away parts. This comment just makes me think that as a designer that you just wanted to say that "yes this part may break because it is 3D printed". It makes me think that as a designer you were too lazy to address potential issues beyond adding the structural bolt. Adding the bolt actually negates any benefit you try to imply by having break away plastic parts.

Additionally, it is easily possible to design the plastic printed parts to be strong enough that they will not break even under significant loads. Beyond using stronger print settings, redesign the plastic parts so that the projections are either shorter and wider, and or they are reinforced with structural elements. For instance, the EL shaped portion on the upper mount that keeps the saw retained in the bracket should have a short projection and the entire red part should be much wider to make full use of the available width of the handle. This yields a much stronger part. Then the long projection of the red part should be thinner but supported with 3 long bolts to secure it to the backing block. The same should be done with the side projections of the lower mounting block...

and if I was really concerned about the gorillas working in the shop whacking my saw mount I'd print the improved (but smaller) parts with solid infill so that post processing with in salt remelt could be applied to achieve a much higher tensile strength on the parts.

OR better yet, I'd just print those parts with the polycast filament, and then use that as pattern to cast the part in aluminum.

Favourite part was when you said - "you shouldn't do this, but.." 😀

Great project! Will the 3d print fit the DeWalt DWM120?

Thanks for sharing such an awesome concept and video! I tried clicking the link, but it says “link has expired.” Could you provide a new one? Many thanks!

how do I make this if I don't have a 3d printer?🤔

[Smegmachess]

Did you upload your printable files on internet?

[revealer]

Is there any way you care share pdf plans if one did not have a 3D printer they could still make it?
Thanks

I've been thinking about getting one of these portable saws for this very reason. Nice work.
Is there any chance you could repost the file for the 3D printed squareness comparator? I finally have access to a printer and would like to whip one up
