Hi All
Looking for a bit of advice especially from any Hammer bandsaw owners.
Received my N4400 bandsaw which should have been a pretty joyous occasion - my first properly new pro bit of kit. I bought it after hearing some good reviews and had intended to use it to resaw some veneer and cut stool seats.
Trouble comes when during set up and tried to true the table up to the blade and couldn't get it square both sides. Hmmm ... straight edge across the width of the table showed it was out by approx 0.1mm. Nice dip across the width deepest half way where the blade passes through. Consistent across it.
Contacted Felder who told me it was within their tolerance. Odd as my Axminster is pretty much dead flat and costs half the price. True its not a massive dip but is going to make life a bit tricky which is pretty much not what I paid for.
Any guidance or am I being too picky.
Cheers
