THE Model BBS.20 bandsaw introduced by Burgess Products Co. Ltd. is different in design and colour to its predecessor, the BBS.10 but retains many of its features.
It can be used to cut hardwoods and plastics up to 3in thick; brass, copper and mild steel up to lin. It is suitable for intricate cutting jobs, and small radii can be cut with ease.
The machine is portable, overall sizes with table fitted being 24in length, 14in wide and 22in high. Weight is 33Ib and power is supplied by a 1/10 h.p. electric motor.
Now supplied with the bandsaw as standard is a 15in by 12in saw table which can be tilted up to 45 deg for bevelling arid angle cutting. Other new features include a larger throat to enable wider material to be handled, and a modified blade guide-shield and lower blade guide mountings so that fitting of the blade and adjustment of its alignment are considerably simplified. Made by: Burgess Products Co. Ltd., Electric Tools Division, Sapcote, Leicester.
