As a new band saw owner I found this video very informative. Thanks for putting it together!
Mr. Dee Schrinner is the dude! Consider having him on more episodes. I have the Laguna 14BX and I still enjoyed his discussion of it.
Some really great bandsaw information!
Thank you Matt and Dee!
I already own a band saw, don't need another one. But your content is still 100% worth watching. Always a learning experience. Feels like I'm spending time with a friend. Thank you for your hard work and shared experiences.
I'm amazed you were able to get Jimmy Stewart to teach us how to use a bandsaw ;-)
Very much enjoying this video. Mr. Shrinner was very informative and is obviously an expert in the field. The band saw is one of the last couple of power tools I don’t have yet in my shop and see that coming in my future, so this video has been extremely helpful in my knowledge and training, both product-wise and safety-wise
Excellent video! I just bought the 10” Rikon Benchtop saw and haven’t set it up yet! This will be useful!
Hi 👋, WoodWorks great to see somebody who knows what they’re doing and is able to teach other people, Back in the 80s I had a contract to make some components out of Ebony and Rosewood, I had a serious problem with the blades, not lasting very long, the company that I was using to buy band saw blades from recommended that I use it bimetal blades , so since then I’ve always use them, And over the years, I have done a lot of resaw work, As per usual, a great territorial, obviously this is going back in time I’m from the future, 😂
Ive had a bandsaw 8yrs and learnt some valuable stuff there. Thank you gentlemen.
This is actually a very informative video. Thanks to the both of you for sharing.
I didn’t know how much information I got from a video I didn’t think I needed to watch
Great review!
Great tutorial. Your guest really provided valuable information applicable to hobbyist like myself as well as your dedicated wood workers such as yourself. I'll be watching this again.
Didn't know you were going to be here in town. I would have stopped by to meet you. Just down the road from us.
That’s some great information about bandsaws, especially the blade options. And I love the shirt… its one of my favorite verses
Matt, Thank you for putting this together. the information you shared will help me!. Thanks again and God bless.
Thanks for a great presentation! I just got my first bandsaw, a Jet 14”. Very helpful video.
I do not have a bandsaw yet, but I appreciate the knowledge dump; I didn’t know what I didn’t know
Great video! Education! I like how you bring in other people on the channel!
This was super helpful for me. My dad gave me his Shopsmith which also has a bandsaw, and I've always had some difficulty when using it. Certainly novice user error, but also setup and even some better guides which was eluded to here. I'll adapt and adjust and looking forward to better cuts🙂
Cool video! I don’t know much about bandsaws and this video definitely has a lot of great information. Thanks Mighty Matt.
Some really helpful content! Also, thanks for sharing The Story!!
Very informative video. I inherited my dad's Grizzly a couple of years ago and don't know very much about it, other than it has been used very little.
Great beginners information. Thanks for the education. I'll be watching this one again a few more times.
Those are some impressive curves at the end! I’ve been learning bandsaw techniques recently and will definitely be using this video as a reference guide going forward.
Great great video!! Excellent 731! Thx!!
That was really helpful. Thanks a million.
Nice...I'm shopping for bandsaw, size, features an such..glad I found this Matt, another good upload... answered my question on size and power an so forth...
Perfect timing for this video, I have been having issues with drift when re-sawing, figured I just needed a new blade, which I ordered. Then watched this video, next day stripped off all the guides, cleaned thoroughly, replaced and reset up. Hadn't got my new blades yet but figured I would just have a quick try at re-sawing some oak, what do you know, no drift.
Great breakdown!👊 Time to play!
Amazing, really like this kind of video.
5:15
Me: "you say something?..." *Goes back to stubbornly attempting to resaw hardwood logs with a WEN*
Good lesson
This one is of off topic but it’s a new video and you’re awesome and you respond so well!!
New tool to look into that I love is the drill DR. If you break a drill bit tip or break it in half you can resharpen them! And resharpen them even if it isn’t broke. Love your channel!!! FIST BUMP
I'm not gonna say what that last cut looked like haha 😂 Thanks for the informative video!
Hi Matt this is Gary Brant I have the Laguna 14 inch bandsaw like you guys was using I absolutely love it. Great job on the video. this makes me want to get the bearing guides instead of the ceramic guides.
love that, thank you
Thank you Outlaw!!
Very informative. Thanks will try the tune up advice on my Wen 14 inches. Lots of drift😢
This is a great informative video bc my crappy Chicago Electric 14" band saw cuts like crap but maybe I can get to cur straight now.
I have the Laguna BX14 110v and I must say the brake feature is super convenient. I had issues setting it up at first but it's doing what it's designed to do. I like Alex Snodgrass' assessment that the deepest part of the gullet on the blade should ride in the middle of the wheel. I've never had the need to use anything wider than a 3/8 blade on this bandsaw. The Carter guides are a MUST. They have awesome blades too. Thanks for the shout out at the 13:15 mark 🙂
14” Delta $839. Amazon delivered to my shop!
I gotta get one of those resaw king blades.
Glad I watched. My guides need to be closer.
Thank you Matt for the informative video!
I really want to buy the nice Carter guides and accessories to make my bandsaw run like a dream, but they’re so dang expensive! If I fix up my bandsaw the way it needs to be for resawing, I’d be spending more on accessories than I did on the saw!
late to the party but great video for a novice.
Wow! Great video!! Saved to my Woodworking videos to reference later! So much valuable information… Mr. D is obviously just scratching the surface of his bandsaw knowledge here.
Love the shirt, need one for 1 Corinthians 15
Matt how is your 14"Rikon bandsaw holding up? I had the 10-3061 and loved it but just lost our house and my entire woodshop to a fire. I am considering upgrading to the 14" and getting the dw735 with the helix head after the rebuild is completed.thanks for all the content. It's been a great help
I have purchased a skil table saw based on your recommendation, have a skil sliding compound double bevel miter saw, have a makita plunge router, and a cordless 20v Craftsman tool kit. I am a beginner but have drive to learn woodworking. What would be the next machine. Bandsaw, drill press, router table?
Hi matt question?but not about band saws if that's ok what's your thoughts on pneumatic sanders ,do they sand faster than cable powered orbital sanders. P.s. l would love a band saw I'm just going to have to start saving my pennies 😊
downside to carbide blades, if you snap them after a year youll have to just buy another one from laguna if you want to use it again. if you snapped one every few years the timberwolf would still end up cheaper over time. it very much depends
Wow. Glad I got my 14” Rikon for 800 bucks brand new on a father’s day sale back before the ‘Rona years
Great and informative video. Seems like that gentleman could talk for a couple of days on the ins and outs of the bandsaw. Makes me wish I was closer to Houston.
Another great video Matt. Thank you for making it. My journey on a band saw is only beginning… I was in the market for a new one but was given a smaller used one to get my feet wet. I’m already learning so much about it. 👊
19:25 He mentions blade drift being the result of setup problems on newer bandsaw with the newer tools, etc. What about older model bandsaw? I have an older Grizzly G1019 14" bandsaw. No matter how much time I spend aligning everything, I still get blade drift like crazy.
Excellent video. It will help me a lot with my similar bandsaw. I do have a suggestion. Please consider captioning the speech that occurs while a loud tool is running. It's not too pleasant to have to listen to a tool screaming to be able to make out what the person is saying.
He said the carbide blade can be resharpened two times when sent in to the manufacturer. What’s the total cost with shipping?
I'm looking at a Powermatic 14", I'm guessing that's a good choice right? I have a JET 10" too small
I almost jumped through my phone to scruff ya and pull you away on that thumbnail lol.
If you want to know about blades, there's a great vid on them from Stumpy Nubs. He explains a lot of the info about them.
The 14bx is 1000 cfm minimum per the manual. I know because I just bought a dust collector for it.
There are tons of used bandsaws no need to spend thousands. I got 4 from small to huge and paid under $200 for them all. Just look for good deals and bandsaws that need a little service. Also, you can buy rolls of bandsaw blades for like a dollar per foot. Making your own blades to your length is easy and soooo much cheaper.
Wen has a really good 14” bandsaw with an 8” re saw capacity.
After doing the math, the horsepower comes out around 1.45-1.5 @ a 120v.
And it’s under 900$.
👏👏👏
You cut the word "safety" on the bandsaw?
Great vid. However he is wrong about the ceramic guides. If they are always contacting the blade then you have set them up wrong. They are setup just like rollers and dissipate heat much quicker. Think of the space shuttle, what is the underbelly coated with? Ceramic tiles. So I don't see the rollers as a upgrade.
171", .045" thick steel blades for my Woodmizer sawmill go for about $30.
I don't have a bandsaw, I would like one, but as of now I can't financially afford one. Lord willing, when I start to earn money i can reinvest in my business. 😊
is that super dave?
I enjoy your videos. However, why do content creators over use the the word "ULTIMATE" or "GENIOUS"?
Good information as always. I have a Rockwell/Delta 14" band saw. Manufactured in the mid 1970's. Good old American cast iron. Made to last. It was in bad shape when I got it. I restored it by cleaning it up, replacing worn out or broken parts. Once together and dialed it....OH does she sing.
Thanks. Ultimate, Genius, Game-Changer, etc. are all action words that drives more clicks. Name of the game is to get the views while providing good information inside the video. That's the "why" it is done all over CZcams. Short answer, it works.
@@731Woodworks Thank you for the response. I can relate to what you are saying. However for me, it is always a let down and game playing. I understand you will do what you need to do to increase your views...It is your job to your self and your family. It just that those words are overly used and it diminishes the value of the video and the content creator. I believe you are creative enough to come up with a new catch word and be unique to drive up the views. I have faith in you. I do enjoy your videos. They are informative and entertaining. Take care and God Bless.
My band saw is a bench top Harbour frate special. I hate it...
EDITING REMARK: Check your spelling on "safety" there friend.
Thanks. I'm not perfect nor ever claimed to be. Only one man ever walked the earth who ever lived a perfect life and they crucified him.
@731 Woodworks I'm on board with ya brother. And I thank Him every day for His grace in my own life. Just a constructive comment. Love your stuff!
@@jp3890 Thanks for looking out for me! I'll keep a better eye on that moving forward.
Love this. My uncle and mentor is no longer with us and he isn't able to accompany me on this part of my woodworking journey (getting more skilled with his bandsaw now that it is in my shop). This will go a long way towards getting me going and then some. Awesome video. Bookmarked for future reference!!
