Residency requirements

North Carolina Woodworker is aimed primarily at Woodworkers in North Carolina. We will accept automatically users from NC, VA, TN, SC.

All others registrant's accounts will be put into Moderation, once they have verified their email address. Most of these registrants will be declined by our staff. This has nothing to do with you personally.. It has to do with our desire to maintain the local nature of our discussions, functions, etc. However, we do accept non-residents in a few special cases.

  • People who, in the staff's judgment, offer special skills that are not represented in depth with our current membership.
  • People who have a special interest in woodworking in North Carolina and/or work in the state.
  • People who represent manufacturers and/or retail vendors of woodworking tools.
  • Other exceptions may be made as deemed appropriate by the staff of www.ncwoodworker.net

However, registrants that do not meet the automatic registration requirement , MUST provide information as to why they should be considered for non resident membership. This is done by filling in the "Non Resident Join Request" field of the registration application. Remember that a non resident registration is placed into moderation. When the staff reviews these accounts, their attention is placed on the "Non Resident Join Request" field. If it is NOT filled in, the registration will automatically be declined.

Question about my bandsaw
Well it has been a while since my last post but im back with another question! ok, i dont know how it got this way but my bandsaw has a bent blade! it really is more like twisted a little. What i was wondering is if there is some way to fix the kink/twist or if i have to buy a new blade, which i dont want to do cause this one is only about a month old and barely used! please HELP!!

Thanks
Zach

I always change the blade when that happens. No other reason than rather be safe than sorry.

Re: Question about my bandsaw
yeh what wildwood said! if you try to straiten it it will break and not at a good time. also running it bent you will wear out the thrust bearings and guides on your bandsaw. blades are cheep compared to tool repairs!
