I've been cutting up parts for a dresser and it seems that my tablesaw
isn't cutting straight. Some boards do have internal stresses and are
bending as they move past the blade, but others don't seem to have that
problem, yet the boards also pull to the left. I checked to see if the
blade and fence are parallel, and they are spot on. I also checked to
make sure my splitter was in line with the blade. Yep.

I know that many types of blades can cut more on one side than the
other, e.g., bandsaw, handsaw, chainsaw blades, and can thus pull the
cut to the side that the saw is cutting more aggressively, but I've
never heard of this happening with a tablesaw. Can it be happening to
my blade?

Another piece of evidence is that I'm getting frequent burning in the
cuts although the blade appears to be nice and clean.



P.S. Kudos to Nicky Hayden for his firt MotoGP win!
