Riser Block Installation for Grizzly 14" Bandsaw | Missing Parts
Adding a riser block to your bandsaw is a quick way to greatly increase the cutting capacity of the saw. My Grizzly 14" bandsaw came with a riser block, but no other parts of the riser block kit. So, I had to get creative and fabricate the missing parts for this installation. After a bit of work, my saw's cutting capacity increased from 6" to 12", allowing me to resaw much larger boards than before.

Thanks for the video. I just finished refurbishing this exact same saw. I noticed on mine the top guide blocks sit forward too much (~3/16”). After some measuring, this appears to be a design flaw. Did you notice the same? I corrected it by filing the castings of the clamps for the hex rod.

I can't say I've had that issue, but I'll have to check tonight.
I wish I worked that fast
Where did you even find the Riser Block to purchase? They seem nonexistent online

It came with the bandsaw when I got it at auction. They're not difficult to make out of hardwood. Or, if you have any skill with a welder, out of tube steel and plate.

@@GlennFrazeeYT this is a great idea, thanks. Would you be able to provide the height and width dimensions of the riser block itself?

It's a 6" tall riser block. You'll want to measure the width based on your bandsaw.
