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
- throat clearance (Ausladung): 380 mm
- max. workpiece weight: 15 kg
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

| Synonyms: | CMI C-BAN-250 (probably the same); DE: "Metall-Bandsäge" |
| Type: | Vertical Bandsaws |
| Material: | metal (depending on blade); wood (currently not intended) |
| Used with: | 1400 mm bandsaw blades |
| Location: | Hot Metal Area |

| Status: | Working |
| Manual: | nearly identical: Westfalia RBS 205 |

This small bandsaw does not have much power, but may be used to cut soft metals. As it has rarely been used and we have a horizontal bandsaw now, we might transform it into a belt sander.
The blade guides are very simple, just consisting of two pins for the sides and a bearing for the back of the blade. We should turn an eccentric bearing mount to increase their lifetime (by default, the blade runs too close to the center of the bearing).
Please refer to the proper blade-guide distances explained in our bandsaw introduction, NOT the ones from the manual!
Specs:
- blade length - 1400 mm
- max. blade width - ???
- max. blade thickness - 0.36 mm [1]
- max. cutting depth - 80 mm
