Wadkin DO bandsaw in Sydney

[clear out]

On FB marketplace this morning.
i thought about it as it looks unmolested re the drive, a V pulley instead of flat.
It would have fitted under the lineshaft nicely, just as well it sold as I’m a little too busy currently.
The price $500.

Thanks for putting up the photos H (especially the tag photo, which I'll add to the thread on the Canadian forum next update).

I particularly like that it's still got the shifter for the flat belt drive. Nice.

Cheers, Vann.

Interesting - so whats the difference between the DO & the DN?

I've still got my DN awaiting a restore in my backlog ...

Six inches .

The DN has 30" wheels, while the DO has 36" wheels. They were replaced by the 30" and 36" DR bandsaws ~1935.

Cheers, Vann.
