John Heisz - I Build It | How To Make Band Saw Wheels from Plywood @JohnHeisz | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 3 days ago
The wheels are made from two layers of 1/2" Baltic birch plywood, plus hubs for the lower drive shaft and upper bearings. Plywood has durability and strength but the varying density makes it more difficult to balance. A better choice would be particle board, but I didn't have any on hand and I didn't want to buy a full sheet just for this.
I sized the wheels so that when the tires are put on the total diameter will be 12"
