Hi gaci, welcome to the forum. On a new model, Record will give a longer guarantee and they are good on backup and service. There are many reviews of different models on this forum that may help you, so make a search. The more homework you do before you buy will pay dividends. If you can find...

I have probably missed it, but which bandsaw and model do you have please? Malcolm

Just been looking at the first photo again. Looks like the cut is in two directions rather than straight curve and could account for the very wide kerf? Probably my poor eyesight. ? :roll: :?: :?: Malcolm

Hi Adrian, burning will only take place if you are rurning too tightly, OR because the blade is not cutting completly vertically, as any 'offset' would cause more friction in the wood. I constantly use a 1/4" 14tpi or less and rarely go to a deeper blade unless I am cutting the full width of a...

Would be better with a 14TPI, as I use all the time. Ther blaqde you are using would be more for much deeper cuts. The 14TPI is a much smoother cut. Malcolm

As mentioned, it may be a weld problem although that would be most unusual for Tuffsaw. Definately the right people to buy blades from all the time. Malcolm

Have you 'tuned' your bandsaw so that the blade stays in the right position? See below.... GET THE BEST TUNING FROM A BANDSAW 'Alex Snodgrass of Carter Industries has an excellent video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGbZqWac0jU on a tune up method that works well. Tuning is only that...

WOW! That looks superb. Well done. =D> =D> =D> Malcolm

Anything on here ? https://uk.pinterest.com/billcomanescu/ ... e/?lp=true

HIn Tony, that hour is not wasted at all. Time taken to learn a skill; is well worth it and it has shown you that the correct tension is so important. Thats why setting up without any guides anywhere near the blade is essential. I made exactly the same mistakes you have made when I started and...

Mrs C, perhaps your friend could consider offering his services to the education authority or sixth form college. Possibly they could run a woodworking course, or do at present. A skilled cabinett maker may well be welcomed on a part time basis, which may fill your friends need? Malcolm

Fantastic. Looks really good. I must try this but keep getting sidetracked on other things. Well done.

Well done Adrian, I said it would be helpful as he knows so much. Hope you got his CDs. Now we should see improvement very soon. Malcolm

Yandles have the best selection of timber I have seen, that you can closely inspect, but Sykes Timber in Atherstone do have huge supplies and are more local to me. Malcolm

Went to Lloyds bank today to get new £1's. Told that haven't got any and would only get them in if ordered by them when running out of old £1's. I suppose they know what they are doing?

Without the right tyres, you are unlikely to get good results that will last. Have you tried to google for spares, although the age of the maching may be against you. Malcolm

Two sizeable peices of equipment delivered from Record were brought into my garage when delivered. Have a word with Record immediatly as this is an important matter and I would never have anything delivered that was not placed where I wanted it. That machine is too heavy and my BS400 heavier...
