Re: [ExternalEmail] Re: [4x6bandsaw] Out of ideas to fix blade alignment
|
Some saws have eccentrics on both sides of the blade like my old UC115 (and I think Tony's) and others have them only on the outside like yours. Better made ones normally have only one, where not so good have two eccentrics (Bean counters like that, since have only one sku, and extra level of adjustability means it can cope with wider manufacturing tolerances)? - jv

? ?You mentioned in an earlier post that both eccentric blade guide
rollers were on one guide . My saw has one on each guide bar , and I'm
surprised that no one else has commented on this . That in itself may be
a root cause of your problem . I'd suggest you swap one of those
bearings to the other guide bar , and make sure both eccentrics are on
the same side of the blade .

In 1775, the British demanded we give them our guns.
We shot them.
