What is the biggest bandsaw box practical?
The bigger saws don't like smaller blades. The small bandsaws are limited in resaw height.
Is it possible to take a 16" cube of solid or laminated wood and make a bandsaw box out of it? Maybe with a 3/16" or1/4" blade in a saw with a 16" resaw height ? Bandsaw box makers seem to use mostly 1/8" blades.
Is a 12" cube reasonable on a 14" saw with riser?
Most of the bandsaw boxes I see are about 6" maximum, so maybe bowing or cracking limit this.
I'm not concerned about the bigger chunks of wood cracking for this discussion. I'm more concerned about the ability of bigger saws to cut a tight radius with a small blade and still be accurate enough for bandsaw box work.
If you've done any cutting like this what saw and blade did you use?
Thank's
