He Said You Can’t 3D Print a Band Saw... I Said Hold My Beer

I have no doubt that a band saw can be made with 3d printed parts - all it would take is the right amount of testing and trial and error to determine how strong the parts need to be. Of course it couldn’t entirely made from 3d printed parts, but then a wooden band saw isn’t 100% wood either. You would add metal where you need more concentrated strength, like screws, shafts, bolts and bearings. But I firmly believe everything else could be printed while you kick back munching Cheetos and watching YouTube, while not potentially cutting your fingers off on the table saw you don’t know how to use safely.
