Re: Adjusting FB510 table orientation with blade?

#whatmachinetobuy
Greg, I'm very much a noobie when it comes to band saws, but here are my observations from the last year or so with my Laguna LT14SUV (Asian-made, Euro-style 14" band saw, 3hp, ~14" resaw capacity):

Re: replacing a sliding table saw with a CNC router
1. CNC is indeed repeatable, results vary somewhat with size of end mills, depth of cut and feed rates. Good methods and practices are still required though. 2. Software is great, just depends upon

I've watched all the Snodgrass videos and have had success with his method on my 14" Jet bandsaw. I have an FB510 too that I use for resawing with a 1" Trimaster carbide blade. The Snodgrass approach

Re: replacing a sliding table saw with a CNC router
I¡¯ve lusted after a CNC for 20 years for my hobby shop. I am an engineer who has worked in high tech for 36 years so the CNC stuff is definitely of interest. As I¡¯ve dug in a few things I¡¯ve

Hi Jim, ¡°Drift is important for great off-tkoihe-saw results because excess drift will hold up the blade which then takes little jumps and makes a rough cut.¡± Few months ago, I asked here how to

I have an FB510 and have been able to adjust the table for drift. I also have a shopmade resaw fence which can be tweaked via shims to fine tune for drift. I don't use the t slot so that is not a

Ditto the Snodgrass video. I followed his instructions and have gotten very accurate resaw thicknesses. Snodgrass claims the fence can be out by 1/4¡± and still cut straight. I¡¯m not sure about

Re: replacing a sliding table saw with a CNC router
Lot of great feedbacks, I think I start to grasp the limitation about the stock thickness and alignment. For my use case, I believe this is manageable with a small table saw on a side and something

Exactly, these things are fun to drool over, but out of reach for 99% of us. I almost went pod and rail machine because they can be pretty cheap, but most of them needed 440V or way more amperage than

Re: replacing a sliding table saw with a CNC router
Remember, you're depth of cut is limited by the length of your tooling.? In general, the longer the tool is, the larger the diameter is going to be.? Cutting 8/4 stock is going to require at least

Craig, Looks like you have a great saw. I would get a 1" carbide tipped blade like the Woodmaster CT by Lenox and put plenty of tension on it. They are expensive, but will last easily 10 times longer
