There has been a lot of discussion about bandsaws, blades, etc. Not a lot of talk about tension gages. I have just been going by the factory gage on the saw. I don't have a clue how much tension it will produce. I am in the market for a tension gage. I am thinking the Lennox, or the Iturra. It seems that the Iturra gage is more compact, and does not utilize as much blade for measurement as the Lennox. I don't know if that is a big deal or not. It just seems to me that the more blade you measure, the better...
I would like to know how you tension your blades? If you use a tension gage, what brand is it, or is it home built?
Thanks for your help, Sam
