I need to cut a gentle curve through the long dimension of several
1/2"x1/2"x1" pieces of hard nylon stock (making soft jaws for bending

behind the blade. Is there a lubricant I can use that will keep the
stuff from melting while I cut it?
Was this a woodworking only bandsaw?
If capable of metalworking speeds:
1) Set to the slowest speed it has.
2) Put in a brand new sharp blade.
3) Don't push too hard.
Good Luck,
