| Adam Chamberlain | December 31st, 1969 06:59 PM The bandsaw is designed to do this kind of work. The operation is called resawing. Make sure you have a new, wide (1/2 in. or larger) blade with a small number of teeth. Adjust your blade tension for the wide blade. Make sure your thrust bearing is in good working order. Your side bearings should be adjusted for optimal function also. If your bandsaw does not have them, you should consider getting graphite impregnated "cool blocks" blade guides to keep heat build up on your blade at a minimum. Be sure to have a replacement blade handy. I hope this has helped. |
| DIESELDOG | July 16th, 2001 09:45 PM Need to know if a 14" band saw will cut 1/8" slab from a piece of 4" hardwood such as cherry or walnut; without "walking". This is for musical instruments, so it has to be fairly exact. |
| Dave McGannon | April 14th, 2003 03:08 PM Craftsman 14 inch band saw 22424 - is there a riser block kit for this saw? This would be a new saw but I can not find a kit listed anywhere. Would another brand name kit fit? Thanks, |

| sawmaster | February 7th, 2006 12:59 PM Contact www.grizzley.com There bandsaws are made by the same company. Hope this helps |
| Joe | February 8th, 2006 02:16 PM What is the model # off the tool itself??? |
| Adam | February 8th, 2006 05:07 PM Are the upper and lower wheel frames bolted together, one-piece or welded? If they are one-piece or welded, than bolting in a riser block is not an option. |
