Howdy,
I just picked up a ued Rockwell Bandsaw last and the demonstration by John on how to tension the blade was incredibly useful to me; so thanks editors that piece was a great call.
Okay here is my question; The saw that I bought last night tensioning knob is located on a very short rod, so short in fact that operating it is quite awkward. Where would I find that groovy handwheel that John was using in the video tip?

Hi Dennis,
You can get better tensioning hand cranks from Iturra, PSWood, Highland Woodworking, Hartville Tool. I didn't get the wheel type as illustrated by Mr. White, but a crank handle type. Works like a champ.

Roy H. is more up to date than I am on the sources for an after market knob for the saws, so I can't add to his list of suppliers- Thank You Roy.
I've tried both wheel and crank handle versions and prefer the crank handle version.
