Aldi £150 Workzone bandsaw - vertical stand
Ever since I bought the Aldi workzone bandsaw I wanted to make a vertical stand for it. (like all the cool kids have)
This is the simplest thing I could come up with that provided a good solid base whilst also being super easy to setup and tear down.
the whole thing took less than 1.5m of 25mm box section.
the final setup is here: • Aldi workzone bandsaw ...
And a fix for the supplied vice: • Rubbish vice - Simple ...
I uploaded my stl file for the handle 'puck' to thingiverse:

this identical machine was later sold by Aldi under the Scheppach brand

Fix position of the rubber on the drive wheel. Btw. it's a nice and clever stand for this bandsaw. I have got another clone of this tool.
It has taken me 4 months to unpack my Aldi bandsaw, but I finally got round to it yesterday.
Was undecided about buying this bandsaw - as I wanted a small vertical set-up for sizing/shaping metal stock (e.g. scrap) before machining. Your stand is a clever design and stores easily. Thank you very much - Aldi just got an order from me too... IanT
Great idea! Last week I bought the identical Scheppach MBS1100. I'll use the time to delivery to print the 3d parts 😉👍🏼
For the same saw I made a similar vertical stand. Does not require tools for mounting or nuts and bolts. I use the original base to hold the vertical stand or as an anchor point, not a vise. Gravity act as a clamping force.... It works.
Just building a frame myself. Think I’ll post it, but I’ve never made a KZread video.
What a brilliant idea. On the strength of your videos I will order one of these bandsaws. You should be on a commission 👍😀
Great idea. A foot switch might be even safer. PS I've just bought the same machine and yes I'm extremely pleased with it. I need to cut a fair bit of 25mm mild and stainless bar and it does this perfectly. I'm sure I'll try to make a vertical jig very soon too.
I just got the machine and this vertical stand is excactly what i want. So i am very happy you made a video about it. I probably want a switch directly on the machine, so i can use gravity for cutting something that takes longer. I really dont want press the button all the time.
Excellent video! 👍
Grazie mille, idea fantastica, l'ho copiata per la mia Parkside gemella della tua Workzone 👍
Nice solution! I built a stand for my portable band saw as well. I use a big spring clamp to keep the power/trigger switch engaged.
I have just started metalwork. Your video is an inspiration and I have just ordered the Aldi bandsaw. Your welding looks great to me, I hope that one day I can do it without a load of splatter. At the moment I can't even keep my weld in the right place, it seems to drift away from the intended line!
you are a star for up loading to thingiverse
That seemed to work really well and is a nice simple solution.
Brilliant jig!.. Instead of installing a switch i use a remote switch. I made a wristband and stick the remote controller on it with velcro ..😇
👍
good idea im going to try this. i just got the scheppach band saw from aldi. it was £120 and it looks like the same model under a different name I might be wrong. I don't suppose you still have the 3d printing file you made for this? is it on thingiverse. im not good at fusion 360 but I have a printer
That's a very good idea. I might modify it for those (for example me) who do not have a 3D printer. Out of interest, how did you find it for cutting box section in the stand provided? On thicker box section I could not get the Lidl one to cut straight though it will free hand.
I don’t have access to a 3D printer is there another way of getting the part please ?
