Looking for a reference for a shop made bandsaw blade tension gauge

[Jason Ochoada]

Hey Guys,

I could have sworn that I came across an article that showed how to make your own tension gauge using a dial indicator. I found the one in FWW that uses feeler gauges but this isn't the one want. I am aware of the Starrett, Lennox, and Iturra gauges for purchase. Can anyone help me out or am I just dreaming?


Thanks
Jason

I know I saw one also, wasn't it over on the MM forum.

It is on the Mini Max group forum under files, band saw tension device.
