The Metabo BS 1638 W (you can probably drop the "W" when searching for accessories) is a three-wheeled bandsaw for 2225 mm bandsaw blades.
DO NOT use the integrated disc sander! A proper disc sander needs a table against kickback, and it's generally a bad idea to use a sharp blade as a mere driving belt...
The saw was missing a parallel fence but Manu built one that should be fine for most uses, please help us out if you would like to improve and document it further!
Specifications
more details in the manual!
- cutting height: 160 mm

Caution with Curves
Besides the radius, which is determined by the blade width, you may run into problems with tight curves going in the wrong direction. Please make sure the wood is pushed towards the side with the support bearing (left) during difficult curves or there can be a very unpleasant derailing!
"Difficult" means any combination of...
- hard wood
- thick workpiece
- tight curve
