Actually,snodgrass said in one of his videos,not to worry about the bottom bearings,once the blade stays on you're good to go! My problem is the blade at one point will move back onto the thrust bearing,so,blade doesn't run consistently without touching the thrust bearing!

@BlisterBang Год назад

5:40 and 6:50 It's neither the tip of the tooth, nor the center of the gullet. Alex Snodgrass, at 7:25 of his video that you reference, says the BOTTOM of the gullet should be in the center of the tire.

Interested to see you adopting the Snodgrass method. I saw him do this at a woodshed on SW Ontario a few years ago. Worked well for my 12" bandsaw but not at all for the benchtop model I had at the time. Always entertaining to hear people complain that it won't work. It certainly can in my experience.

Vibration? Replace the stock belt with a link belt. Makes a huge difference. Instead of bolting the saw down, put hockey pucks under the base. They act like expensive anti vibration feet but are cheap. -Jim

@SSBailey77845 5 лет назад

Jonathan, your content has been super helpful. After buying a Jet 18" bandsaw at an online auction (buyer beware!) I called Jet to obtain an Owners Manual that just could not be found online. I soon discovered why I couldn't find it. When the super helpful Jet tech heard the actual serial number for my JWBS18 he replied "Wow! That one is the old of the old!" Uh oh. So, like I said I watched this video and bounced over to Alex Snodgrass and then to Carter. I quickly realized that a) my bandsaw could be awesome with a few upgrades, b) with your advice combined with his techniques I could start using m new tool safely and reliably, and c) my bandsaw had been modified in a few expedient ways that I needed to address. Keep up the great tune up series and joinery videos! Great stuff!

@embfixer 5 лет назад

There are so many rabbit holes you can go down with band saw tune ups, but the Snodgrass method really eliminates it all. I used to have all kinds of issues with blade drift until I realized that having the blade centered on the wheel that has a ridge in the center causes the leading edge (the teeth) of the blade to be unsupported and the blade would cut at a slight angle or worse, move side to side. Sounds like a commercial, but the Snodgrass method eliminated all that. Thanks for another great video.

@harrydavis6903 3 года назад

Johnathan, the scrap piece to check your blade square is recommended by Alex Snodgrass to be approximately the width of your band saw table, your scrap piece was a bit shorter than that. A piece that covers the whole width of your table would give a more accurate result.

@johndoe920 5 лет назад

You can actually regrease sealed bearings by peeling off the seal, pushing grease in and putting the seals back. And a lot of the manufacturers use cheap grease or not enough so it doesn't actually hurt and extends the life of your bearings considerably.

@ramongibbs8692 3 года назад

I've owned an older cast iron 14 inch Jet with riser block for nearly 20 years that run perfectly. That tune up is an excellent method. However I've found it the main four mount bolts that attach to the cabinet, the large neck bolt that passes through the riser block aren't re-tightened along with checking/readjusting the drive belt and motor is essential. Theses are by far the very foundation of the bandsaw. And if those are right there will be vibration.

@mdowden1722 4 года назад

I used this method to turn a cheap bandsaw into an ok one. But I think you should turn your test piece around not over so your using the same reference face as you would when testing a square.

@SeanFoushee 5 лет назад

Great video, but regarding that one thing you said about not worrying about the wheels being coplanar, if your wheels aren't close to coplanar it can absolutely cause problems with this method. When I received my Grizzly 14" its wheels were over 1/8" out of plane with each other which caused any blade smaller than 1/2" to slip off the wheels no matter the amount of adjustment made to the upper wheel. The wheels don't have to be perfectly coplanar, but if they're not close you'll have problems keeping the gullet aligned to the crown of the wheel or even encounter the blade slipping during a cut.

I see people adjust square on back and front too. I do not see a need as long side to side and the blade in tracking well Side to side gives you a straight cut. Front / back determines which end finishes its cut first. Any other reason to adjust front/ back?

@albanleroux 2 года назад

Hi Jonnathan, I have almost the same bandsaw, an european brand holzprofi hbs480. I have the same process to setup the saw as you, so that’s confort me I do the setup right! After few year of use I found the this bandsaw does not really allow large saw blade as they pretend (1.25" max). With a blade like that 1.25" it’s impossible to center the gullet on the wheel. It also lack of tensionning power with this kind of blade. My thinking is a 3/4" blade is a max for a good tension. What is your thinking about that? Something is very anoying on my saw is that the moving arm with the blade guide as it go up or down does not track strait with the blade. So if I have a good guide spacing at 2 inch over the table, it totally wrong at 10 inch over the table. Any advice about that ? I never be able to do a so beautiful cut as you show in this video. It will be a dream. We don’t have blade with skip tooth here, the blade almost all the time some waves in the cut. I can not tell if I can improve something or not.

@johnshanahan6550 5 лет назад

Great video. What's your opinion on loosening the tension on the blade when you're not going to be using the bandsaw? Does it matter if you leave the blade under tension for long periods? The only reason that I ask is that I remember every now and then to loosen it but always forget to tighten it again before I use the bandsaw the next time. If it doesn't make a difference I'd rather tension it once and then leave it. Thanks.

@katzmosestools 5 лет назад

I never leave it under tension. Well occasionally I forget but it's a good way to ruin a perfectly good blade. All that expansion and contraction is just hell on a blade

@WindRidgeWoodCrafts 5 лет назад

Mike Schienle Thanks Mike do you recommend the cast iron trunnions over the steel ?

@WindRidgeWoodCrafts 5 лет назад

@@robertmcevoy24 For the trunnion, I don't think that's a major consideration. They don't have a lot of stress on them like the column does. That said, I think you can match the rigidity of steel with cast iron up to a point. I suspect Jonathan's G0513ANV (17" steel) and my G0555XH (14" cast iron) have equally rigid columns for the capacities they offer. At some point, you're just creating excessive weight with cast iron, but I don't think we're running into that at 14" or 17", it's more likely just an engineering tradeoff vs. an obstacle.

Must be all the poms and wallabies hearing blandsaw. Lol

Great video but 1/4" deflection is WAY too much when setting tension. Probably 1/16 is closer.

Gotta add some salt to that blandsaw

I've given up hope with my bandsaw. I've spent hours watching tune up/set up videos and I've never been able to have it consistently cut straight, with no drift. Just dirty cutting which I clean up with more reliable tools.

Try a timber wolf blade. They're awesome

@@katzmosestools I watched that Snodgrass video after yours and I'm excited to see if this method is the key. I'd guess TImber Wolf blades aren't available in the UK, so I'll have to make do with Tuff Saws. Cheers, Jonathan.

Surely a blandsaw would be beige. I mean, that Grizzly, it's so black..! (Robin Williams voice) "You can wear it casual by day, dress it up at night..."
