    New Plane Blade & New Scraper

    I bought a new blade for my new Veritas Foreplane. I wanted to put a radius on the edge of one and keep the other straight. It took me a few hours to get it right but I finally did it. I tried it out on a piece of wide scrap and it worked really good. The radius kept the edges from gouging...

    Saw Blade Sharpening

    Hey folks. First let me set a bit of background. Over the years I have gone thru allot of saw blades (50+). Once they got dull I would just throw them away and buy new. Some of these blades, you would naturally do that with, anyways, as they are not meant to be sharpened. But then I started...

    Check Your Blade Height

    I intended to cut a 1" shim (I know, mighty big for a shim) on the TS. All went well until the end of the cut. Then I got kickback, mashed my finger (not worthy of a pic), and broke my blade guard. :BangHead: My error was the blade was set about 1/4" too low, from where I had made cuts...

    BS blade tension

    Do you release the tension on your BS blade? If you do, why? If you do not, why?

    ? for Forrest Blade Users

    I'm re-evaluating my current saw blade usage, brand, and sharpening service. I'm curious what the total cost of sending Forrest blades back in for sharpening runs? If you WWII users would share what the cost is including shipping I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Rob

    Freud glue line rip blade

    A few months ago I bought this blade and said in a post I was not real sure about it. I said I would follow up after using it until I was sure about its performance. The more I have used the blade the better it has performed. Or could it be I have become more proficient in using the blade, ya...

    BS narrow blade stabilizer

    In the WS vol. 30/no. 176 there is an article on upgrades for the BS. One of the things they recommend is a Carter Stabilizer for narrow blades. I am going to start making BS boxes and wondered if anyone has an opinion, yer reckon, on how much, if any, this would be a benefit in making BS boxes...

    what a difference a blade makes!

    Had to say it. LOML and I picked up some cedar CSkipper expressed from Newtowood for us. Sheever so kindly gave us some scrollblades while we were there. WOW! imagine the difference you see when putting in a fresh blade after a dull one. Now imagine about 4 times the difference. The 'cheap' one...

    New saw blade recommendations

    After 10 years and 5 sharpenings, my trusty Olham 40 tooth carbide table saw blade has finally had enough. She lost a tooth (not just the carbide but the hole tooth) last week and is starting to cause kickbacks with vibratations. I'm afraid I'm going to have to put her down. I will be holding...

    10" plywood blade recommendation

    I am looking for recommendations for a 10" plywood blade that won't break the bank. I am thinking in the $50.00 - $60.00 price range but I have a little fexibility. I don't have the cash to buy a new Forrest blade.

    Another bandsaw blade source

    Via some information from a friend, I got up with a small family run company in Maury, NC. They make up bandsaw blades, sharpen saw blades, router blades, etc. I ordered some blades on Tue, got them on Wed and unfortunately, the tooth pattern wasn't what I was looking for. I called the guy...

    Woodslicer band saw blade

    Installed a new Woodslicer (3/4") on my Rikon 18" bandsaw last night. The blade moves fore and aft over 3/32". It appears to have been welded slightly out of square. It cuts well but bumps the rear roller on each rotation. Should I call Highland Woodworking and ask for a replacement? I...

    "Jack the Ripper" Looking for a Blade

    OK, I know there's a ton of experience on here with different blades. We do a LOT of ripping with our tablesaw, and have been using a "General Purpose" combination type blade. Problem is, when the blade binds at all, or the wood is stressed, we have no riving knife. SO, we get that dreaded...
