I've tried searching through the many posts about who uses what blades on what saws but I haven't come across any GO555X owners using anything larger than a 1/2" WS for resawing. There may those threads be out there, but I'm not finding them. The GO555X manuals states it can accommodate 1/8" - 3/4" blades so I thought I would take the plunge to get the widest blade I could to re-sawing, but I don't see where many (if any) 555X owners are using more than 1/2".
I'm a new rider on the bandsaw wagon so here's my question:
Any GO555X (w/riser) owners using 3/4 WS blades? If there very few or none at all, is it safe to assume it's because of not being able to tension it properly?
I've already bought the 3/4" WS and am about to install it (with the Grizzly cool block kit) but wanted to check with the more experienced users before just trudging along.
On another note, what's the secret to getting BS blades not being used rolled for storage? I feel like I'm raking leaves in a cyclone when I'm trying.
Thanks as usual for any feedback.....
