I have had this band saw for a few years now and sometimes i just shy away from it because i haven't gotten very good results from it in the past. I am giving the saw another chance because i think my previous poor results are most likely due to not "dialing it in"... and with some of the ideas i have for new projects, i will need this tool in good shape ready for action.
Sometimes it seems like the cut will just "drift" from where i am steering it. also the cut doesn't always remain square to the table, almost like the blade is flexing across the cut. i thought this might be the tension, so i tightened it. I also keep track of the guide blocks and make sure they are positioned properly to the blade.
maybe i just need a new blade...
any of you out there who have this saw or anybody at all, please advise me on how to fix it. part of my problem might be that i haven't used it enough to get really comfortable with it. Thanks in advance
