Band Saw model 113 24261 - wheel tires NEW
by: SxChuck

My grandpa gave me this band saw a few years ago. The wheel tires (rubber bands on the pulleys) were worn out and spinning off. I used a truck tire inner tube to make new tires for the blade. Worked great. I see they still sell the rubber on the sears web site for 12.49. Save your $ and just make new ones out of old truck tire tubes.

How can I get parts for this thing?
by: Anonymous

I just picked up one of these saws. It looks to be in fine shape but the top wheel grinds against a bolt for about 3 inches each revolution. I figure that the wheel is not longer true. Is there anywhere that I can find a new wheel?

Excellent Saw - Craftsman Band Saw 113.24261
by: Anonymous

I was looking for somewhere to buy 80 inch blades when I came across this post. I bought mine off a friend who did not want to sell it so I gave him an offer of 125 dollars and he took it. I brought it home and took it apart to order new parts like bearings and things only to find their was nothing wrong with the old ones. This saw works perfect. I'm just looking to buy blades i guess ill go to sears parts.net they can get me anything
