Ridgid Bandsaw - new motor?
Furnished content.
(from WoodNet.net)


I have the Ridgid[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]BS14002. It has only 6 inches of resaw capacity. I was thinking of a mod or two the increase it.[/font]
[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]First, add a riser.[/font]
[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Second, upgrade to a carbide resaw blade[/font]
[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Three (here is the real question), upgrade the motor. The existing motor is 3/4 horse. Can I get a bigger, stronger, more powerful one?[/font]
[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Will it make a difference? If so, where would I look to find a new motor.[/font]

[font="Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Any input is appreciated.[/font]
