Is there a trick to turning a Bandsaw blade "inside out"? I just kinked one that I had for my little Inca BS...brand new too...ticks me off. I remember doing this many years ago and had no problem...

No different in concept than flipping a rubber band inside out. Just takes the right touch and some gloves.

Holding the inside out band in your hand(s) place the bottom of the band on the floor. Lightly step on it with your foot, right or left is your choice depending on whether you're in the northern or southern hemisphere. With two hands wearing gloves if you are a hand model or office worker (or simply sane) simply curl forward/downward (curl as in wrist curl with a dumbell) your hands forward and the band will snap into compliance.
Seriously, gloves are a good idea and keep your face out of the way as the band snaps pretty quickly.
