I had posted the construction of this as an edit on my band saw modifications but am posting it here, as I just finished it and for any who missed it and think , as I do, that this is worth an afternoon to make. It keeps the saw blade clean and the chips from building up in the saw hosing. If you are like me, I forget to look in there unless I am changing the blade and it gets really piled up with chips. This eliminates that problem. I have been told it may help increase blade life, but I can't verify that.
This is the brush installed on my saw
This is the completed assembly
These are the main parts. The end cap and end plate are not shown because I hadn't made them yet.
