I'm in the process of renovating my bandsaw and the original rubber seal around the gearbox cover is far, far past it.
I've filed down the top of the casting to give a better face to seal against and am thinking of using an acrylic cover instead of the original steel one. Would Flexoid Gasket paper work as a seal in this application? Is it any good in general? It would be a lot easier than using something rubbery as I can laser cut it at work.
