not cutting square...
Hey Guys! I changed my blade today, and found the blade not tracking right on the idler (upper) wheel. I looked up the adjustment instructions and adjusted so the teeth did not ride on the wheel

Saw tricks I've tried
Just some quickie bits that I've done with my saw to make it run a bit better. It sounded to me that it was a bit bouncy and rough when cutting so I started looking around at the saw to see what I

Re: Saw tricks I've tried
I had occasion to slice a 1/2" slice off a 4.5" dia. piece of AL this weekend. I found that as it started getting to the thickest part, it was taking it's time. I also added weight (a small vise, in

Re: Saw tricks I've tried
Good tips! Here is one I have tried... Had a 3" diameter brass rod that needed a 1" length, sliced off of it. The stock was not long enough to be held in the vise. (only about 1.5" long, as well as

Re: stuff to do
These are things I have been with my 4x6 1. Bimetal blade is the most important. They are expensive but worth it. They are usually 10 teeth per inch that alternate with 14 teeth per inch. It sets up

I've got to cut a 3/8" thick slice of a 5" dia. Al round that is 2- 5/8" long. It looks like I can hold this round in my vise and make the cut without any jigs or work-arounds. The saw frame will

I wish I'd taken a picture, but I ditched the chintzy sheet metal legs and replaced with some 2x4's, a piece of plywood, and 4 casters. My friend cut the 2x4's to fit the bottom angles under the

On my bandsaw, the jaws are only about 1.5" high, and end about 4" from the blade. BUT, I do have to make a "confession" here. I do not have the 4x6 model most of you probably have. HF used to

Newbie, tech ??
I've just started making a few cuts on my Grizzly 4x6 bandsaw and must say I'm quite pleased with the results. I am cutting 303 stainless bar, 3/4" x 2". Although it might not be the suggested

Re: Digest Number 17
I thought I had a Harbor freight band saw for the past couple of years and when the blade bearings went bad I called them to get some new one. When I went to get the model number I discovered I had a

Re: Digest Number 17
Be aware that HF has great prices on parts but doesn't seem to stock much in the US. It may take months for your bearings to arrive via container ship from China. Ed On Sat, 2002-05-04 at 07:04,

Slight perturbation from the weld in the blade? Cyclic features in the pulleys? I've seen it, too, never worried 'cuz it's a rough cut anyway. Graciously,

Gee - I hope the fact that my (I'm Jim E.) bandsaw's slightly different didn't turn people off. Appears I'm the last poster. Graciously,

Jim, It's just (that) we are pouting, 'cause we don't have a piece of 4.5" aluminum. 8-) Leo (pearland, tx.... near houston)

Re: new saw owner
Howdy, welcome. First, check the message archives, there's some decent info there for you to start with. Second, order a good bimetal blade after you get your saw. Last, go forth and cut! and
