I recently added a riser block to my DElta X5 bandsaw. The wheels on the saw were perfectly aligned before I added the block, but now the top wheel is almost 3/16 out over the bottom wheel.
Since there is not a washer to take from the front wheel, is it OK to add washers to the bottom wheel? Is there another way to make this adjustment? Did I do something wrong in installing the riser block?

I'd call Delta customer service. That way you'd get it straight from the horse's mouth.
good luck

Willgeorge,
As you are obviously an old married man, I'm sure you know the two words that save a marriage-and the husband. "YES, DEAR!" Also, one must learn to grovel properly when uttering the words.
Keep having fun.

Willgeorge,
If I read your reply correctly, I am truly sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how you feel, and I would hate to try. Any consolation would have to come from the fact that you two spent a long life together with many wonderful memories, and I'm sure she felt the same way about you. If she was as classy as I surmised from your words, she wouldn't have stuck with you as long as she did if she hadn't. Always remember the GOOD times.
Best,

Second the motion to call Delta. You need to know if there's a flaw in the riser block!
