  • @GeeWhizRS

    Two points if I may be so bold that were drummed into me as an apprentice (30 years ago)… lower the guide on your bandsaw so it’s as close to the workpiece as possible for accurate cuts and to limit blade damage. And, when leaning on your file, lift it (or lift up pressure) on your back stroke to limit the wear to maintain the tool. It only cuts forward.
    Love your videos. 🥳

    • @addisonmoncelle5022
      @addisonmoncelle5022 Před rokem

      I completely agree on your first point (lower your bandsaw guide), I personally disagree on your latter point. Both in my personal experience and in actual tests (check Fireball Tool) it appears that back cuts do little to no damage to a file's teeth, and actually do remove some material. In addition, back and forth passes are quicker and easier than lift cuts. Of course, I very well may be wrong in this and always love to learn more.

    • @andrewallason4530
      @andrewallason4530 Před rokem

      I believe it to be true, but it’s an issue with metal files, not wood working. The relative ‘hardness’ of wood and antler should do absolutely nothing to a file, except to assist with clearing the teeth.
