What I noticed was he has a nice TS with a sliding table, yet used his

He does it for the thinner kerf. A considerable saving of expensive

over time.

I thought about that, and really, if you think about it, you get a rough
cut off a BS that requires planing/sanding.

That depends entirely on the quality of the bandsaw and the bandsaw
blade.

Really?* What make and models BS and blade cuts glue up quality joints?

Well, the Laguna BSs built in Italy. With the Resaw King blade. But I
agree, the TA probably more easily produces these type results.


*That is not the purpose or design of any BS or blade I know, and even
if it could be done, it just isn't, far as I can tell. It's the wrong
tool for the job, and he definitely has the right tool, a high quality
table with sliding table.

I visited the Minimax distributor several years ago in Austin. The
instructor was building a piece of furniture with nothing but a band
saw. Yes a nice piece of furniture.
