Out of what? I hope you've got some really nice tools to tackle
something like that with... Lots of milling required, I'm sure. By
they time you get it built, you could probably have bought yourself a
Grizzly and sawn away for weeks. If you can do it, awesome- but
bandsaws are a touchy breed.
Gilliom out of St. Charles, Mo once upon a time sold kits
for saws, band saws, shapers, sanders and other machines.
They supply the parts and pieces we humans can't get like
the wheels, arbors and castings. The line is/was called
Gil-Bilt.
This address goes back a couple/few years.
Gilliom Manufacturing Inc.
500 Boonslick Rd.
St. Charles, MO

As an aside, I have a friend who built one of their band
saws and he liked it just fine but short of a rave review.
He switched from their recommended fir ply to Baltic Birch
and made other arm chair injineering decisions as he went..
One thing to note, when you get the kit, don't be surprised
by the quality of the castings and the material but then
whaddayawantanyway, I mean hell, it's a fargin' kit after
all, right?
Here's a link to look at.
