How to abuse 1 3/4 HP bandsaw (0/1)
Jeez. I thought I knew how to abuse a BS. I stand in awe since mine is only a 1hp. If you've got
your heart medication handy, you might want to price a carbide blade for doing things like this. What's it like when you buck it with a chain saw? Sharpen every third cut?
