Tools and Hardware Reviews of Carter Products DEL14 Band Saw Guide Set For 14-Inch Delta Band Saw
Customer Review: for those who own a rockwell/delta hex post saw
Summary: 5 Stars
I had been looking at carter guides for some time before I bought them but was reluctant to go ahead because I have a hex post saw which poses some interesting problems. This kit will not fit on your hex post and althought carter makes a special kit for hex post saws you should not buy it because it has a number of problems. If you were to buy the special hex post kit it does not have acomidations for a blade guard (they suggest you rig your own), the mounting bracket uses a strange offset pin which I gather is a pain to align and will make it impossible to use their blade stabilizer, and finaly it costs twenty dollars more for an inferior product. No, you should buy this kit for the round post which does not fit your hex post saw and heres why: the only thing keeping this kit from fitting your saw is the post and if you didn't know, the newer style round post fits pefectly into the hex post hole(which is a round hole the same size with some nicks broached into it to catch the corners of the hex), so pick up a new style round post on ebay and this kit and your good to go and at worst you spent the same amount you would have for the hex post kit but for a much better setup. alternativly if you have a metal lathe, you could do what I eventually did which is make your own post out of a 12in long piece of 7/8in stainless steel hex rod, just face and chamfer the ends and turn down the one end to 7/8 round and you get that original look and better alignment with the new style guides the way they are suposed to be. I will be posting pictures of both installations soon.
Also I must add that these guides are a wonderful addition to my saw on all fronts. the quality of construction is top notch and they opperate flawlessly I would highly recomend them to any one with a band saw.
