Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
Thanks Dave The base casting of the Packard is very different from the std RF or HF. When you think about it, the whole vice table is stronger without the curved slot and the angling of the 'fixed'

Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
That is the way it's mounted; any other configuration would let the saw cut through the wires right away. -Dave

Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
Hi Rick I added shims between the pivot arm and the sawframe casting to get the blade? to change angle between the side (flank) of the blade and the vice table. But I felt it put to much strain on

Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
Hi Rick It will shift the line of the guides in relation to the bandwheels a bit, but not significantly and won't hurt the blade. However you shouldn't need to do this on an internal guide

Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
Try mounting a small wire wheel, so it turns with the blade. A lot of bigger saws come that way. Bill Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2020 5:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [4x6bandsaw] Rong Fu

Re: Rong Fu Industrial Introduction
John, As an experiment, I added an 1/8-inch thick strip of metal on one side of the top and bottom blade guide supports. This is the top support. On the right side, the bar is in contact
