Default What factors affect bandsaw drift?

I've got an 18" Jet band saw and haven't experienced this problem. I don't
know it it's inherent to this saw or if I simply have a knack for
installing blades... I don't do anything special while installing blades,
it's all done by eye and feel. I don't have a problem with the Jet brand
blades nor with Timberwolf blades. I haven't tried other brands so I
cannot rule out blades as the problem for others.

IMHO the quality of your saw lends a big hand in elimilating many
adjustments that have to be dead on.
