I posted earlier asking technical questions about the MM16. The salesman told us that in a European shop, the Bandsaw is the central piece in the shop; all others - inclduing the TS - are merely supplemental. He went so far as to say that the only thing he uses his TS for is for sheet goods.
Are there resources where I can learn more about the "European style?"
My experience with the BS is very limited; I probably have 10 minutes on any bandsaw, total.
That being said, I know that the BS is much more versitile that merely cutting curves and resawing. Is there a good resource on tips, tricks and techniques on the BS? I saw a couple of books on Amazon (Lonnie Byrd's was a quick find), but my impression was that these books were geared more towards how to buy a BS than how to get the most/best use of it.
Thanks,
John
