Uneven bandsaw table
I have a 12" Jet bandsaw. Material catches on the lip when feeding
material into the blade. By lip I mean where the table has a slot for sliding a blade for mounting. Using hand pressure I can true up the table so that a straight edge will lay flat, but as soon as I release the pressure the straight edge will have a gap on the infeed side. Any help would be appreciated. TIA R.A. Moore |

In most, if not all, bandsaws there is a tapered pin that is inserted into a
hole in the edge of the table that bridges the slot. When this pin is in place it keeps the table flat. Is your pin missing? Charley "Robert Moore" wrote in message m... I have a 12" Jet bandsaw.

At $1.79, replace if missing. If you've got a bit of a burr which is catching versus a missing pin, chamfer the iron with a bit of 220 SiC paper. "Charley" wrote in message ...
