Wow. Great video and demonstration.

Thanks so much! Going to change the blade now. 😄

Great find for 10 dollars

Not bad for $10

Great deal looking good Keep building

Thanks bro . ✌️

This is a brilliant video. So enlightening, thanku. Assuming the type of wood makes a difference too. What’s the wood you’re using here? It looks like a softwood, is that right?

THANK YOU! Trapped my pinin blade in acrylic. Needed to release it.

My Dewalt 12" miter saw does not cut completely to the back of the fence. The saw always leaves a tiny piece of wood that does not get contact from the cutting blade. How do I correct this? 👍🏽🤠 06/28/24

How do you find the saw after three years any issues is the contractor model is a saw that it's a lifetime

Well you were lucky that they throw in the mobile base in aus you have to pay for it

Do you have the measurements

Great gifts

😅

Great tutorial. Thanks.

In case you didn't catch it, THE BLADE BOLT IS REVERSE THREAD. Loosen clockwise, tighten counterclockwise.

I think you had some good ideas. There are a couple of things I saw that may explain why some things didn't sell as well as you thought would. I think when people want to buy wood that is what they want to see. covering the wood with paper may not be what people expect. A little hand painting may be preferred. Your ornaments are very cute I think they would be even cuter if they had some color or sparkle. I was told that not everyone has the same tastes so you may need to expand the styles so you enlarge your inventory and attract other kind of customer. I've learned a lot from other crafters and I'm thankful for their suggestions. I am talking to you in a business setting I am not putting you down I hope this just gives you more ideas and choices.

Thanks mate. Have a similar model, slightly different but same idea. Lost the manual years ago. Worked it out thanks to your help.

Uma pergunta James. Você usa muito a Bosch RA 1181? Acha realmente útil, para trabalhos pequenos de artesanato? Tenho uma, estou pensando em vender e comprar uma menor, o que você acha?

Olá James, sou brasileiro, moro no sul do Brasil, em uma pequena cidade, Biguaçu, que fica ao lado da capital, Florianópolis, no estado de Santa Catarina. Gosto muito de marcenaria, tenho algumas máquinas e estive olhando seu canal, adorei, muitas dicas boas sobre artesanato, que é o que gosto. Temos três filhas, duas delas moram em Los Angeles. Amo o seu país. Muito obrigado pelas suas dicas!

Thank you

If you plan on cutting circles with this unit , FORGET IT!

my saw is off on angle and the fence is bowed. Harbor freight.....

😊awsome video...thank you just bought one for $65😊watching from california

Miter saw approach is clutch. Mine are always uneven. Exactly what I was looking for

Thank you!!!! I did it! It may have taken all of my strength to get the old blade loosened but, I did it!!

We have the 8 inch saw. I recently changed the blade from your other video and now we’re noticing when we use it. The blade will not stop it. Just keep spinning for a minute or so. Any ideas?

Great video now I understand how it work

I wouldn't buy one of these in any condition for any price. Mine refuses to track straight and wastes belts like no tomorrow and right now I have mine apart to get bit of a belt that got balled up and jammed in the drive roller. Get a better one and go through less money by not ruining so many belts.

Is it light enough to carry around?

Thanks so much for posting this! I have the exact same saw I haven’t used for a few years and forgot how to get the plastic blade guard out of the way. Thanks to your video I was able to find which screw to remove.

How much would you pay for this second hand?

The crocodile made me giggle, thanks for an easy hide to sort out my saw

Thanks so much! Went into Rona today and they are charging $10 dollars for 10. I need 50. …$50. These are great methods and will save me some bucks. And the geometry is fascinating! Cheers

Thank you for the good ideas. I think the new neighbors are vampires.🧛 and I need to make some yard signs.

I’ve still got mine, perfect 90 degree blade

So what are you hiding be find the blue tarp?

1:03 If you REALLY were a "safety first" kind of a guy, you would lock the door to the workshop and never go back in. What actually comes first is, "accomplishing your task", otherwise you have no reason to be there.

NEVER EVER run the saw with the door open

Are you serious. I sat through 5 minutes of bla just for you to jump cut to it being assembled. Cool. So I'll just read the manual, was hoping to watch someone put it together but that isn't this.

Get yourself a couple small squeeze clamps to hold the blade on the wheel while you line up the blade on the other wheel. There's a CZcams video on it. Really helpful. And I throw my new blades in the grass to uncoil it.

Nice.

My 3921 is either missing the socket screws, or it has wingnuts. No matter-we have a hardware store for that. Thanks for the easy-to-figure out video!

How I wish I'd found this video a couple of weeks ago! I had the same task, and encountered all the same issues - and then some. But I got there. The old machine I inherited is an INCA 342 from France. The innards were choked with accumulated wood dust in every crevice and corner. Every bearing , guide and adjustment screw was caked, needing removal and scraping clean. I'd never before seen the insides of a bandsaw, so this was a 'voyage of discovery'. The tension adjustment was and remains seized solid from decades of neglect. I had to use the Tracking Control knob to get enough slack to mount the new blade, and then accept the resultant tension when the tracking was right. The upper/lower blade guides used several 'carbon' blocks which were positioned/secured by means of tiny hex setscrews. Their keyways were blocked by caked dust. All that sorted/adjusted, I had a trial 'spin-up' which seemed fine, so I tried cutting some 50mm teak. Problem! Cutting was extremely slow - far slower than that the previous old blade achieved. And there was a 'clacking' sound. I switched off, opened up and inspected the blade. I noted a tiny incipient crack on the inside of the weld area.... so that blade was NBG, and went back to Amazon. I then sought advice - from Tuff Blades in South Wales, who were exceptionally patient with an ignorant noobie, providing much guidance and two new blades. They also quietly pointed out something I'd never heard of - not even after wading through more than a dozen CZcams videos. My machine is what is known in the trade as 'LEFTHANDED'. No, me neither! The newly-fitted blade is 'sweet as a nut'. 50mm teak is a 'walk in the park'. No undue noises, no squeals of protest. Just simply effective.... Proves once again the merit in asking for advice from a responsive pro. No more 'fools rush in'....

The blade guide should not be all the up when cutting 1/2 material. It should be just above the material. Did you read the manual?

You don't unfold the blade by opening it yourself. You just throw it to the ground. Not kidding.

Can I cut curves w it?
