Ive had the Jet JMD 18 for a while, and while waiting for parts for the Johnson band saw, I started working on the mill. Stripped it down, got some of the parts painted, and started to build a stand. I need to find an on/off switch that will fit in the space, or I might get the same switch as I put on my saw and build a box for it. I will then mount it on the left side of the machine. Got lots to do on it, but I`ll get there lol. Here are a few shots in no particular order. I aslo gotta find a way to make a speed chart for it as its missing. Ill probably have lots of questions for you guys
here is the switch it had in it, I dont like this because you can hit it by accident, would like to find push button switch to fit in this space.
in the back of my truck the day I picked it up, my buddy brought his skid steer down to unload it.
here is the stand Im building, 1 1/2"x1 1/2" x 11ga tube, I tacked in some channel iron runners after drilling them, that the base bolts to
the leveling feet I made, would like to find some 1/4" rubber to glue on the bottom
Thanks for looking.......any info hints suggestions about this machine would be appreciated
