Van's recent thread got me thinking about this. I really hate changing out my blades. It seems like it takes me forever to get the old one off the machine and then readjusting the guides. As a result I oftentimes wind up using the wrong blade for the job or even breaking out the jigsaw because I don't want the hassle of changing blades. Since I use my bandsaw mostly for ripping I generally keep a 3/4 or 1" blade on it...which needless to say doesn't make the tightest turns! I'm thinking of picking up a little 14" saw to keep a 1/4" blade on for curve cutting. But frankly I don't really have the space for what amounts to just appeasing my laziness.
I have a 19" Grizzly and while I've never actually timed it I'd guess, without exaggeration, it probably takes me at least 10 minutes start to finish to change blade. (And probably closer to 15!)
Am I just really slow? Which is what I suspect. How long does it take some of y'all?
