This all started some time back when Mike Davis graciously hooked me up with his old bandsaw when he upgraded.....Mike, U da man , man 
It was perfect for me to experiment and learn on and was key in justifying the purchase of this one
no sawdust yet ......bad as I want to use it I am going to wait a little longer
FredP has been kind enough to offer to come over and help me tune it up right
I've got wood from Jeff and Jack just begging to be re-sawed
....oh Happy Day

Make sure you get a good blade for it. NO TIMBER-WOLF.

Name: Greg Bender City: Mooresville State: NC County: Iredell Join Date: Jan 2008 Age: 55 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.53 over 30 days | Robert,
picked up the same saw on Friday nite.I just got through lifting the saw frame onto the base and mounting the table.Will finish tomorrow and then start tuning and adjusting.Does your tension indicator seem a little off? I put the blade from Klingspor,Timberwolf,on the saw and The indicator seems to pick up on the tension at 5/8" setting.Also,do your wheels seem to be in alignment with each other?I would like to compare notes with you if possible.
Thanx,Greg |
