Bandsaw risers
I have been debating about using a riser on the bandsaw for a while now.
Since I just ordered three more blades from Tufftooth (yes that is a recommendation on my part) it will be a while if ever before I do it. Frankly I prefer to round large bowl blanks with a chainsaw. However, I like to resaw now and then and am debating about using a riser on the saw. It is a 20 year old (at least) 10" (not 14") Rockwell/Beaver. That said I would have to make a riser block on my own to work and I wonder if it is worth it. At present it does a nice job on 5 1/2" maple even dry but occasionally I would like to resaw thicker for guiter tops and backs. 3 more inches would make a hugh difference. -- God bless and safe turning Darrell Feltmate Truro, NS Canada http://aroundthewoods.com http://roundopinions.blogspot.com |
