Frequently Asked Questions

How can you make a line shorter without touching it? Draw a line larger beside it.

Perfect for creating perfect circles and smooth curves, bandsaws are ideal. A thin bandsaw blade allows you to create precise curves on your piece. A bandsaw is the best tool for cutting curves such as this.

Kickback is virtually non-existent, but the motion of the blade tends not to push the work-piece against its worktable. Don't push too hard. Pushing too hard will cause the blade to move to one side or another, creating an irregular cut.

Even the most well-made blades can be damaged if something goes wrong with the bandsaw. A small misalignment in bearings or guides could cause a twist to the blade as it turns. This can lead to premature breakage by applying tension in the wrong way.

The blade may be creating a harmonic effect by the wavy lines. Tend to the blade more. Reduce tension if the blade is already tight.
