    I remember my childhood but not what I got up to go do. Can't be ADHD because I'm definitely not hyper. Must just be attention deficit.

    As for John I hope all is well. He's a very knowledgeable and giving man.

    It amazes me reading posts now and then, people talking about buying a chisel in June of 1974 or visiting a store showroom in the spring of ‘86.
    When talking about something as obscure as buying a tool- I know that I bought it, no recollection if it was 10 yrs ago 15, 8, much less the actual month. I just never pay attention like that I guess.

    Hi Rick
    How’s s that 24 inch Agazzani doing.

    Nope, I have kept my Delta BS, and use small blades on it. Still have the 1" carbide on the Aggie. Don't resaw that often , but when I do it's a great saw. I have some 4x6 and 4x4 stock taken from my old garage that I will resaw soon to make legs for a couple new shop carts. It will be the first 'real' project for a Panto-Router I got a while back. I think I can get some nice 3 1/4" square legs out of it.

    I didn't know there was a 'Friends' section on this site, not much of a computer guy.

    Drop by and see my new saw.

    Thanks for the invite. The reason I asked about your saw. There’s a woodworker that I believe had a 24 inch Aggi that he used to make bandsaw boxes. Art Espenet Carpenter was the father of the bandsaw box from what I read. Not a lot of woodworkers know about his contribution to the craft.
    A good large bandsaw isn’t just about large wide blades it can tension. In fact a small 1/8 blade with a zillion teeth can be very tricky to track a real test to a saws capabilities.
    My Aggi will take a 15 ft blade your has to be a couple feet longer. It’s surprising how well a 1/4 3or 4 tooth blade will last and cut. And they’re pretty inexpensive too.
    Your they only one I know with a 24 inch Aggi I was just wondering.
    Heres a pic of bandsaw box I believe was made by Art Espenet.
    Good Luck Rick

    I told my wife recently that I didn’t forget what she said, I just didn’t remember what she said. You can imagine how well that was received!
