- I have a Sears 12" bandsaw ( a hand-me-down from my Dad ) that I'm
- preparing to tune up for general shop use. I hope I can get it
- working well enough to resaw some 4" oak that I have...
-
- Has anybody had good luck using this saw for heavy resawing?
- What about the controversial 1/4" bimetal blade?
-
- Advice on bandsaws seems contradictory; everybody has their
- special blade theory.
-
- Also, I'd like to hear from anyone who has built the Gilliom
- 18" bandsaw kit, and from users of the Grizzly 18" bandsaw.
