    Record BS300 Band Saw

    If youre kinked, do take care. Better to straighten it out or replace the blade. Some harder blades can cope with the off nail, just take a look at Tuffsaw site for details. Good luck and Happy Christmas and New Year. Malcolm

    Record BS300 Band Saw

    Bandsaw decision : new or old

    Your benchmark ....... should be your choice. Record have the reputation, the quality and the guarantee that can not be bettered in my opinion. I have the BS400 and with Tuffsaw blades it does all I would ever want. Your initial thoughts for bandsaw use may extend, so give yourself a little...

    Purpleheart and Lime Jewellery Box

    That's a nice box Red and it should be very warmly welcomed by whoever gets it. I have used Tru-Oil many times and although it is more expensive, the finish can be just what you wish. Just a few coats for satin and a few more to get it more 'glossy' It certainly is a hard finish. Let us see...

    Bs350 bandsaw, wheel fouling rise and fall

    That's right Mike. I found the blade guard rather long and by removing a couple of inches, it gave a far easier view of the blade when cutting. However, depending on what you us your saw for, you may never need to do this.

    Bs350 bandsaw, wheel fouling rise and fall

    I was just about to mention the two bolts. Having removed that a few times when making changes, if you don't get it just right it will catch the blade. ................................................ another learning curve. Malcolm I also found it helpful to remove about 1-2" off the bottom of...

    Bandsaw

    Record Bandsaws have a great reputation as does the service and 5 year warranty offered by Record. If you buy at a sale/promotion you can often get a discount, but I doubt you would get the free delivery with you in Norway. There are lots of reports and reviews of various bandsaws on this...

    Dash-Cam or other

    I quite like the look of the Marcus5 setup but it has been discontinued, which is a pity as the tiny cameras looked ideal. Some of the onese with big screens are too much to put up on the windscreen and in any event, a screen is not needed until an accident is recorded. One of the items that...

    Flocking - has anyone ever used this brand...

    Let us know if and when you use this. I have been on the site and asked if they have a video of the process, but it sounds like the more common one that most of us know about where the material is 'puffed' on, although the puffer they sell in the kit doesn't look very good. Malcolm

    Dash-Cam or other

    bandsaw usage

    Hope he has an 'instant-stop' blade or some very tough gloves. At that rate he could make a mistake, but I expect it was just done at that speed for the video.

    dust masks

    .................... the AirAce mask is best for me. I used to get all steamed up with my glasses, but thios covers nose and mouth with a good seal and can wear it for hours. Looks like Darth Vader, but very comfortable Malcolm

    You'll love it, I have the same one and so pleased I chose that model. Hope you have ordered your Tuffsaw blades and are starting to get to grips with tuning and getting it to run well. If you need any help, just shout and it is available. Malcolm

    Bandsaw blade wandering

    A bit like the saying 'buy cheap, buy twice'. With Tuffsaw blades it's ' Buy one, need/want more'. Malcolm

    Warco bandsaws

    Hi otter, as to space, I have the BS400 in my garage and each time I put the car away, I wheel it to the back, turn ir sideways and the car will fit in. Manuverability is very good and as mentioned, the Record has 5 year guarantee and very good backup if needed. Together with Tuffsaw blades and...
