   Bandsaws are notorious for making sounds...
   I don't think it's the motor...so blade related...

   Your blade has a bend in it and is rubbing on the guides?

   the weld in the blade is uneven and rubbing

   turn off power, open wheel covers and see where blade is running on wheels-turn by hand...if on the edge, that could be the source...

   help this helps,

   If I forget to adjust the blade guide blocks, or thrust bearings after I change a blade, sometimes I get that.

   wheel bushings or bearings are about to give up the ghost....

   blade tension is too loose... 

   Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming<!----><!----><!---->
