Has anyone had problems with this process? We installed a new 1/2 inch Wood Slicer blade that so far has cut through at least 6 inch planks, hard and soft, like the proverbial hot knife through butter.
But when we tried resawing an 8/4 basswood plank into 4/4 under identical conditions, the blade complained, drifted, and the workpiece bowed. The sawed surface was not smooth but paved with "fuzzies."
I'm beginning to wonder if the Slicer hasn't met its match.
Any advice?
