Wood Bandsaw

[Ben Hibben]

The wood bandsaw arrived today and Jon Coder and I got it into the basement and I assembled it.  I've adjusted all the bearings/etc. and also squared up the table (the label showing the degrees is off, the table is at true square now and the stop is set for this).  Pictures on oculus, including this one: https://secure.flickr.com/photos/lvl1/9088229256/  I did a test cut on a 2x4 scrap and it seemed to do fine.  I then vacuumed up the mess; please note that this will make copious amounts of dust and a thorough cleaning will be necessary after each use.

WHOA Awesome! I DO!!!
But dang it, probably won't be able to for at least a couple of months.
SOOO many awesome things;

We need to create a couple of wiki pages for the new tools and I should probably put together a short wrkshop on how to use them for various things.  Tips and techniques and such.

Ideas and help appreciated.
