    finding those nasty nails before the blade does

    What brand metal detector is good for checking wood before you run it thru a machine? I've heard "Lumber Wizzard" was good. Are there others used? Thanks for sharing gals and guys.

    May I upload Olson's blade chart?

    Olson blades has a two page guide on different types of blades, the drill bit size needed, the best use.... It is obviously their chart, but is still a good reference. I am sure it came with one of the scroll saw magazines, I know I never bought it. May I upload it somewhere other than my gallery?

    ceiling mount Excalibur blade gaurd Now Installed.

    Does anyone have the ceiling mount dust gaurd from Excalibur? EDIT: I knew a man who bought this and decided it would not work in his Basement. So he offered it to me. I went and picked it up this morning and got it installed. It raises up enough to be out of the way. I am going to get some...

    DeWalt DW705, 15amp 12" miter saw blade selection?

    I have wore out the original blade on my saw and am in need of a new blade for my DeWalt 12" miter saw (DW705, 15amp). I know that there are thin kerf blades out there for underpowered saws but I have no idea if this saw fits into that category. I plan to only cut hard and soft wood with this...

    Rikon 14" bandsaw blade tension gauge help

    Hey All, Can someone post a pic of or tell me how their blade tension gauge is attached? Mine was bent when it was delivered (new) so I straightened it out and attached the round end over the pin sticking out from the bottom of the big spring. Is that how it looks on yours? My gauge is nowhere...

    Can I cut SS 304 stainless sheet with a 'standard' bimetal blade ?

    I want to cut some 18-20 ga 304 SS sheet into pieces for a wwking project. Is this a good idea using a "normal" 10-14 tpi bimetal metal-cutting Lenox blade ? This will be on my upright metal-cutting Delta BS, so the speed is no problem. But I'm wondering if I'm going to e.g. shear all the...

    Now this is a band saw blade

    I came across this picture of a huge blade in a old classmates photo album. It's taken at an old lumber mill he visited in Oregon for work, he works for GP. It's Hull Oaks Lumber Mill and still operates old school style apparently. Wonder how many horses it takes to turn these puppies...

    Help w/BS 1/8" Blade Tracking

    I have used 1/2" and 1/4" blades on my Grizzly G0555 bandsaw, and had no problems with blade tracking. Today, I put a Olsen 1/8" blade on. The tires are clean. The blade is centered on the upper & lower wheels. The side and rear guides are backed off. I cannot get the blade to track in the...

    Bandsaw Blade; What kind are you using?

    I have a Rikon 10-325 bandsaw coming next week. What kind of blade and width do most people use for an every day type of blade? How about for re-saw? I have not owned a bandsaw for a long time and want to get some decent blades but am confused as to what to buy. Thanks. Red

    Chain saw blade quality

    There are obvious differences in quality when talking about table saw or miter saw blades, so I assume the same holds true for chain saws ... but I don't know anything about them! What do I look for in a "good quality" chainsaw blade?:icon_scra

    I've got a couple of quality 10" carbide circular blades that need sharpening and I wondered if anyone would care to reccomend someone near Mocksville, Winston Salem, Lexington or Statesville? PM me if you're not comfortable posting your reccomendation. I'm not happy with the job done the last...

    Any reason _not_ to use a resaw blade?

    I took advantage of the Laguna deal that was posted here (thanks, BTW!) to get a 1" carbide resaw blade for my bandsaw. I've got a few Timberwolf 5/8" steel blades. As I hoped / expected, the resaw blade cuts like the proverbial hot knife in butter. In addition, it leaves a much smoother surface...

    DeWalt three blade planer $350

    Currently on RDU craigslist. Doesn't give model, but stated original cost was $600. This could be that 735 that someone is looking for, unless DeWalt made other three blade planers that sold for $600.

    Suggestions for band saw blade tensioning

    Hi Gang, I haven't posted in a while. I'm trying to figure out the best way to tell if my BS blade is doing it's best. I'd like the best cut possible when sawing veneer. I have a MM 16 witha 1" Resaw King. Laguna says tension it just to the point it does wander in the cut. Some say use the...
