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.
