Quick and easy portable bandsaw mount. Two pieces of scrap aluminum and a few machine screws; replaces the factory cutting shoe (easily replaced, w/ two screws) I use a tapered piece of 2x2 wood to hold the trigger down when cutting. I use this almost every day, have cut brackets out of 1/2" plate with this set up. I use 10/14 Starrett blades.
