[@Cudaboy1]

Thanks for all your videos. While many other KZbinrs provide motivation and entertainment for my woodturning hobby, you have been my Academy of Woodturning.

Love the analogy of driving a car and looking ahead, best piece of advice for starting out and learning how to cut curves. Practice makes perfect so I better start practicing. Thank you for taking your time to explain how to use a bandsaw.

I'm about to get a bandsaw and I've watched a gazillion videos to help me choose the right saw and to understand what I'm getting myself into. There is good information in a lot of these videos, although much repetition. THIS video is unlike the others. It provides excellent, practical details about how to actually handle the wood while cutting with a bandsaw and how to get the cuts you want with the blade you're using. Outstanding!

[@russwetzel1972]

What did you get?

[@timpenner7858]

@@russwetzel1972 The 10-inch Rikon. i still dont know much about bandsaws but I'm starting to suspect that this is a pretty good one. There are a couple things I"m not crazy about. My impression is that the tool-less blade-guides and its overall quality and solid build are a big help towards making the cuts I'm aiming for.

beginner bandsawer and I needed this video! many thanks!

[@doublekkkids7466]

I learned how to use a lathe and make some nice bowls by watching your videos. Now I am going to use a bandsaw and I am back to learn from you. I have a newbie question for you, how do I know what size width blade to use? Is it better to use a smaller width when cutting out thinner wood and thicker width for thicker wood? Thank You.

[@wortheffort]

I consider a bandsaw a rough cutting tool. Is not the last tool to touch the wood. Hence I use about as wide as will fit properly on the saw. Always depends upon the type of work you are doing.

[@hypnoraythompson5824]

Good tips! I've been working more on the bandsaw in the past year or so and I learn new stuff all the time. Thanks for sharing!

[@joelynch1059]

Thanks! It's ok to cut a curve with multiple cuts!! I was getting frustrated trying to do all the curves in one cut!!

[@jeetray11]

Thanks man! I am a total noob bandsaw user. I think I learnt a thing or two that I can't wait to apply.

[@jolox.]

What’s the best all around band saw blades do u recommend? Tpi also. Great tip!!!

[@wortheffort]

The cop out answer is... it depends. 95% of my work is done with a 1/2" 3-4tpi blade as this is a rough cutting machine for me and I cut green wood often. That is extremely coarse and other woodworkers think me an idiot for using it so much. My other blade is a scrolling blade. Both are bought from a local commercial supply place where they are welded up to specific lengths off of a long rolled up blade. $13-$15 They don't last forever but at that price I don't really care.

[@ericmoorehead1100]

This technique for curves doesn’t really work for say a bandsaw Box. Would like to see your ideas on cutting continuous curves like a bandsaw boxed.
