Learn how to use the three bandsaws in the woodworking zone safely and effectively. Operation will include: how to avoid damaging the bandsaw blade, when it requires replacement and how to do that; how to adjust the blade guard and guides. Which materials can be cut and the appropriate type/size blade to use and those which must never be cut on these bandsaws. There will be discussions and demonstrations regarding how to re-saw thick wood into thinner boards and how to safely cut round and odd-shaped pieces of wood. Participants will have the opportunity for hands-on experience bandsawing a piece of wood. Dust masks are recommended.
