| Brief Description: |
Bandsaw Setup and Tuning |
|
|
Picked up new Craftsman 10" Bandsaw at Sears and spent the afternoon unpacking it, waxing the table, mounting to the workbench and tuning it per the instructions. Also used a knife sharpening stone to round the back corners of the blade, as I read this helps the blade to curve easier when needed. Using the standard 6 tpi wood blade so far, waxing both sides with a candle between cuts. When it dulls, I'll order a 10 tpi bimetal blade from a local custom blade maker. |
