Sounds like you got a good deal albeit with some TLC needed.
I have made a number of modifications to my BK3 which includes new motor pulley, new drive wheel for low and high speed operation, bearing based blade guides top and bottom, dust extractor fitting and a fence etc. I tried to post the link on your YT but this got blocked so have a look at altrish.co.uk and search on BK3. If you need any of the Fusion 360 files let me know.

Thanks. I was surprised that the bidding didn't go higher.
A fellow YouTuber is very kindly sending me the high speed pulley.
I may well try and make some bearing type blade guides for it myself.
I will have a look at altrish.co.uk.

Cheers, Alan.

I have the same model as that. I have had it from new over 60 years ago. I still use it for small curvy stuff. I made a much larger bandsaw which get most of the work now. Homemade vertical bandsaw.
