Can you tell me what saw blade you use on your bandsaw?

[@mjsimunovich013]

Thank you for the list.

[@punishedprops]

I use an 18 TPI metal cutting blade for cutting foam. I think it's 1/2" thick. It doesn't leave a perfect cut surface, but it's pretty good.

[@sparkopolus]

[@ralphstewart7643]

Hey Bill, I noticed your skill bandsaw was starting to sound like mine on more difficult resaw cuts. There is a simple fix. Just losen the bolt on the back near the motor housing and move the motor housing further away from the blade. This will tighten the drive belt and make all cuts so much easier. Hope this helps.

[@punishedprops]

Hi william subscriber

[@itsagundam79]

I ran into the same issue you did at 7:13 wrapping 10mm foam around a tube when I made my M2 flamethrower backpack. I found the easiest way to remedy the huge gap was to make the wrap about an inch longer and beveling each edge .5 inch in. One bevel going up, the other down. When it's wrapped and glued, there's less stress of shear force trying to rip apart the seam. It also helps a whole helluva lot to heat form the curve too. It's pretty much an invisible seam too.

It creates a different texture! It's easier to do more organic lines and get some awesome variance in depth and width of the line. If I used a blade and heat gun, the lines would all be an even width and look less natural.

[@sophiaroth1930]

I was wondering if you every use anything to seal in all the paint on the final product. I'm worried the my projects will be ruined due to rain and snow, especially because I want them to be resistant to such weather. I've seen some people use clear varnish but I've also heard varnish dries hard and could be prone to cracking. I'm really at a loss about what to use.

[@punishedprops]

We seal sometimes, other times we don't - it just depends on how we want to use the prop. If you have something rigid like a sword you can seal it with varnish or a regular clear coat, because it doesn't need to flex. Flexible sealing is a little more challenging but can be done!

Isn't that life? Also I may have melt the cord a time or 2 when setting it down when hot. Never to the point of exposed wires. The 1 we had before would always pull itself onto its cord when set down. We moved a power strip under our workbench so that ii plugs in below rather than at the back of the bench, that seems to help stop that and using the vise as a stand/holder when hot.
