Here's some examples of the ACM star/SNA 500, badged by Felder, who also sold a FB440 at one time,
(I think Felder might've dropped the smaller lines of Italian saws recently)
These have solid...
Thanks for sharing your experiences Andrew.
Warning heeded.
All the best

Interesting looking stuff Edward, thanks.
I remember a UK bandsaw retailer giving me a rather odd look when I asked for such a thing, (likely from seeing the Borson site)
It does raise questions...
Seems I mistakenly presumed Borson precision resaw services used some kind of lubricant,
but at a second look, it seems an "air mist" system might or might not have anything added?
Perhaps this...
Not sure if manufacturers used anything else but real rubber on saws older than whenever, not a clue, but I'm sure it would be documented on OWWM
if not here.
I only have interest in capable saws...
Good call to wait it out and look for a more modern design with more adjustability than the very old Meber, and one with cast iron wheels, IMO.
Worth noting regarding the "lesser" SNA/Star line,...
Seems we don't even get the option of buying the whole Master rip kit in the EU.
Should someone find a suitable high/low sliding extrusion like on the Harvey, then I'd like to know,
as seemingly...
That particular Meber has no hub for wheel adjustment at the back, perhaps there might be adjustability there within the chassis. but I doubt it.

An ACM SNAC 440 or re-badged ala Laguna/Felder/Griggio/Bridgewood 440 mm wheeled saw would be my suggestion so.

I suggest you might consider looking at the used three phase market, as often used is about half new, and three phase, half that again, in perfect nick, and a rough one will be far cheaper.
Here's...
Possibly worth mentioning Scott + Sargeant have locations in the UK, but also in Ireland (which is still in EU)
should that matter regarding postage to US, I'd think worth checking....
Presuming one would have/get a welder if this work is envisioned, so stability of the machine could be sorted out.
Here's a thread which may be of interest with better picture than what I can...
Might though, if we're possibly talking about the next gen of SNAC...
and whether the OP is aware of the possible challenges sorting out another motor if necessary, as the pulley sits very far out...
2hp motors on most of the ones I've seen, though never seen an ACM so old..
I think you'd have to seek out a grey Felder 540, or Laguna should they have sold the 40 series for more power,
Griggio...
My machine takes a single belt, so just a warning that changing to new, (of the same brand/size)...that it may not have as much stretch as the old.
Though I couldn't say if I used the old one,...
My troubleshooting started off getting thrown in the deep end, so belt alignment isn't something to dismiss.
The moment I mixed a new belt of the same brand/&size (which might not have been spec...
I wasn't convinced at all, of exactly the method described,(on the ozzy forum), and can thoroughly recommend taking footage of your setup,
as it showed up things which obviously weren't clear , like...
Thinking about this, you could do that with the laser also if you wished, as mentioned mounted onto the wheel shaft/against bearing race...
but you would need strong clear plastic in place of the...
How about a question instead?...
Who can match the results John Teneyck is getting, as I've not seen the proof myself.
i.e for instance, who reckons Mário Martins results are just mediocre.
Take...
Now you have it, the tires are both crowned and flat...
It just depends on your point of view, and whether you use a carbide tipped blade or regular...
or if you wish to attain the most beam...
The ones who make the saws will give different answers, to the ones who market them. ;)
If you wanted a better answer, then you'd have to be more specific, and mention anti clastic curvature,
i.e...
I couldn't say what would be tolerable, having had the impression the Italian saws all had flat profiles whilst buying new blades,
as I've only crowned my tires recently, i.e last year, as per the...
I'd be very surprised if the blade stayed put at the very top where I've pointed, without the wheels being in alignment.
If you've got genuine Centauro tires for your CO 600, the camber will dictate...
The co-planar adjustment under tension is smoother regarding the drive belt(s), though not to be confused with blade tracking thereafter.
