Re: FS: 14" 4-Speed Bandsaw w/Carter accessories

Hello Lance,

I do not know of any place that sells replacement parts labeled specifically for Reliant machinery. However, I do know that Enco, Harbor Freight and other brands, still sell saws that are almost identical to mine. Parts could be purchased from them. There are only so many companies in Taiwan manufacturing machinery, so I would be hopeful that there is something available out there that would work. The riser block I have on my saw is a Grizzly. It could not have fit more perfect. It is the riser block made for the Grizzly model # G0580 bandsaw. Other parts from that saw may also fit my Reliant. (Please keep in mind that I do not know how different your Reliant is to mine.) If looking to buy a replacement part for your Reliant from Grizzly, approach it this way: Do NOT ask them if part # XXX for Grizzly saw # YYY will fit your Reliant. They will be noncommittal and tell you that they do not know. Instead, ask them if they could give you the measurements of the part you are interested in buying. If you get a straight answer from them, then you will have a very good idea if the part will work for you. That is what I did when I bought the riser block, and it worked perfect. Grizzly has all of their machinery Owner's Manuals on their website, so you can see the replacement parts and the get part numbers.
I hope that this is helpful.
Good Luck,
Mark
