Love your videos…very helpful. I’ve definitely been taking to big of passes on my table saw and like how you don’t go all the way through, much safer. Also love the bandsaw tips.

Wow. Thanks. I've been struggling to read board without a bandsaw. This was very helpful.

Super helpful sir! I actually did the table saw method last night and I’m glad to know I was doing it correctly. I’ll have to give the hand saw method a try. Thanks!

Oh perfect timing. I've been designing a wood box recently and am planning to try resawing for the first time. 👍

Another great video Jonathan! I'm so happy you dropped a video on this topic. I have been avoiding a couple projects because of this very thing. I used to have a big grizzly 2hp bandsaw so resawing was no problem but sadly when I moved I left it behind and have yet to replace it. So this is just what I needed! Thanks!

Brother, you're like the Nostradamus of the woodworking community. I just sat down to look up resawing boards and wouldn't ya know it.... Your video was the first one in my feed. Thanks for always knowing what I need before I know I need it!

Excellent info, really good detailed instructions.

I really appreciate the guidance around lower powered table saws. I often try to mirror what I see on woodworking videos, but feel like I’m going to get a 2 x 4 to the face sometimes.😂

I've never attempted re-sawing because I was always afraid of it but after watching your video, I think i"ll try it. Thanks

Your camera man is awesome!!! I enjoy watching your videos because I love both woodworking and photography/ production. You are amazing i followed your guide to resaw 3 ( 2x4 ) Douglass fur and made bed side tables

Thanks for a great tutorial video.

Great video for us beginners!

Great advice excellent

Based on past fails, I couldn't conceive how I was gonna get a straight resaw cut by hand without drifting but you just saved my ass with your hand saw tips, very much appreciated! And I'm doing it with a Suizan I bought after watching one of your earlier videos, thank you for that! Those Japanese pull saws are a real game changer, so much easier to work with than the traditional push saws.

Katz Man! Brilliant! A huge force multiplier tip!

I just got a Laguna Resaw King for my bandsaw. I can't wait to use it. Heard lots of good things about it

Thanks for showing how to resaw with the ryoba. That’s a much better technique than I used last time I attempted it.

Excellent demonstration of ripping with a Japanese pull saw! I bought one of those on a whim more than a dozen years ago -- at my local Sears store, if you can believe it, but I'd only ever used the side with the fine teeth for making quick crosscuts or flush-cuts. Today I finally got to use the big teeth to my first re-sawing of some 2x6 framing lumber, after starting the cuts on my job-site table saw. Thank you!

Great tips, thank you for posting this!!!

Awesome info! Always love your video format! Also, I just wanna shout out to Alex that helped me with a shipping issue I had ordering a CMT blade & CMT blade cleaner! He/she made the whole issue so much easier for me, just figured a shout out never hurts when credit is due!

Awesome video my friend I'm excited because I've acquired a set of Japanese saws the resaw with a hand saw looks like a great thing to try

Nice little refresher, and some good tips along the way about technique. I agree about the 3/4” blade on a 14 inch bandsaw. I had tried a 3/4” blade with some success but it really was too big and it wound up chewing the tires to shreds because I had to offset the blade too much to clear the cover.

Fantastic video team JKM. I sunk a bunch of resources into a table saw. My 14" band saw "can" be set up for re-saw, but--and it's a big but--it really isn't up to the task. I will be leaving it in coping saw configuration. These methods, and finding fellow woodworkers who have the space for a big re-saw configured band-saw, are new tools in my book of options for getting great results.

J Katz the saint of woodworking if he isn’t inventing cool tools and jigs to make life easier he’s showing us tips on how to make the most of our lumber with all of our fingers 🤙🏻😉

Great video Kitty Kat. Your so smart.

I resawed, by hand, a 14" wide red by 24" red oak piece. Holy crap was that a work out. I swore I would never do that again. One day I will have a resawing bandsaw. Today is not that day. I'll try combining the table saw and the hand saw method. Thanks!

Love your videos Jonathan from a guy that runs his own business and makes his living from woodworking I wouldn't expect you to give back so much to all of us a you do so thank you ever so much. As a way of thanks I have REALLY good tip to give back: never do #1 on the table saw is can cause corrosion, rust, gumming up, and possibly electrocution 😂

Excellent, thank you

Excellent! I really needed to see how to properly resaw with a Ryoba. I would just go down the middle and easily start going off center. I’ll definitely use the diamond method. Thanks!

I had no idea Jimmy Kimmel was a wood worker. I mean, we all figured he likes wood, but this is at another level. Great instruction and video. You have a new subscriber sir!

Really good work 👍

Great tips and advice. Thanks!

The tablesaw fence jig works wonders, just made one from melamine and it changed my reluctance to resaw.

Great video wish I would have thought about my pull saw. I just resawed probably 15 oak boards to make a door with matching grain on a cabinet. I resawed what I could on my table saw then used reciprocating saw to do the rest. Yes it was a mess worked but my pull saw would have been cleaner. Thanks for the tips. Owe and the resaw fence for my table saw I definitely need one.

Great video. I have a table saw and hand saws, but I don’t have a bandsaw that can resaw. I was just going through my shed looking for material to make an oak table top. All of the boards I have are 8/4. Thanks to your vid, I have a plan that I can execute without a bandsaw.

Very informative, as always

I’ve been there as well. What happened to me was on the last cut. Note my blade wasn’t large enough to cut through it. When I pushed on the side, the remaining center strip of wood failed (about 1/4 thick) as I was pushing, causing the wood to pinch the blade on the non fence side. Worst kickback I’ve had.

thanks, great explanation for using table saw. i need to do this but wanted to see best practices from a pro before attempting it.

How to see more stuff soon! Great video

Expert mode. Nice

Good info.. well done

Great video! Would love to see a follow up video on how to determine the best wood thickness appropriate to your project (for at least the more common species: walnut, cherry, pine, etc)

thank you, very interesting !!

I would never think about hand resawing, but that look simple enough. But may a little practice to get use to it.

...bought a bigger band saw mainly for resaw capabilities, wish I'd of thought of your 4th method when I had the smaller one. Great video, tks

you resawed the board better by hand than i did with my band saw😅

Always great content. Mahalo for sharing! 🙂🐒

Handtool woodworker here. Resawing by hand is a chore. If there is any tension in the board thin saw plate of the Japanese saws will bend and make things difficult for you. If you force it, you will go off your line regardless of whether you have an established kerf. Western saws will bend also but having done resawing with both, the western saw doesn’t bend as much and makes the operation a little more bearable. If there is no tension, then either will perform admirably

Great one, Jonathan. I have a hobby size band saw so I have used my Sawstop a number of times. Twice I've done it by hand with my Disston rip saw. But never with the Ryobi. I'll have to try that sometime. 😁

So guessing I can combine your table saw and your hand saw tips for really thick wood. Like breaking down a 20" x 24" of 12/4 stock. Table saw on all 4 sides like you had in your video, then take a hand saw and saw the remaining? The kerfs can even act like a saw guide.

That japanese technique is rad.

wait, was that 4 ways or 3? did I miss one? Table saw, bandsaw, ryoba hand saw?

Great video, going to try and book match some pieces for guitar bodies. Probably use a table saw, pull saw combo. Gotta use a 7 1/4 thin kerf to start then move over to the arm workout.

i just did a 300cm 2x4 resaw with my stanley st18 1800W.. pulled the stock blade all the way up and did it in 1 go in each side xD.. after wathicng this video, i am glad i am not injured

Great video, and perfect timing! I tried buying a band saw on a local online auction today, but was outbid. I have a ryoba saw, so now I can try using it for my rip cuts! Thanks, Jonathan!

Brilliant. I’m gonna try the Japanese resaw style today. Tell us about that push stick please.

Your killing it Jonathan! Let's hangout bro

I remember one time, actually my first time resawing, doing a full 3in with a DeWalt jobsite saw in one pass. Lol. What a wild ride that was. In fairness, it worked, but I never went that high again. I could smell the burning, but I had no other knowledge and just assumed this was normal. Now I resaw on my 10in benchtop Rikon bandsaw, and it is much easier. I actually made a tall featherboard to help hold it to the fence, as I was struggling at first. For anyone looking for a nice little bandsaw, but you don't have the space or money for a big boy, I highly suggest the Rikon 3061. I have resawn 5in 8/4 WO with no real issues, with a 1/2 4TPI blade. Just have a shop vac hooked up, as it creates a TON of dust. Wear a mask too, as plenty doesn't go into the saw. I have even resawn logs from fallen trees on it. I had a neighbor lose a maple tree last summer and I turned it into some decent rough lumber. It is still sitting, drying, just to be safe.

You DA MAN

Liked, subscribed, and now commented. :-) Good stuff, thanks much.

Good info. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I find on my 1989, stock, non riser block 14" Delta that a 3TPI -3/4" works the best for me. I freehand. Often on narrow stock will CA glue it to a wide piece of plywood to keep it perpendicular. Just my shenanigans, different brand saw may react differently .

I wish you'd posted this last year, before I tried resawing a maple plank for a guitar top. It took me ages, sawing by hand cos I was trying to stay on the line. Wish I'd known about the triangles then. Oh well, I know what to do now. Thanks. :)

Table saw method to start is good, usually I just do a small pass, otherwise for saftey reason I prefer handsaw since it’s much safer and less stressful for the motor. Note i was using Festool if anybody curios to what table saw, otherwise in future I might consider purchasing the plunge saw

I cut a 60lb white oak burl apart with a hand saw once. 1" slabs. I was sore for 4 days.

oh my headless devito!

Fantastic, Jonathan! Thanks a bunch for all the tips! 😃 But I'm going to have to buy a new ryoba. Mine was stolen... By my parents! To use in the garden! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Before I got a bandsaw or a Japanese handsaw, I would start the cut on both sides with my table saw and then use a long straight blade in my sawzall to separate the sides. The rough cut would clean right up in the planer. Thanks for the moist towel trick!

I was going to ask the same question, but then I came across your post , good idea.

Jonathan is the Les Nessman of wood workers. There always seems to be a band-aid on him somewhere. :)

I need to make the high fence table saw jig. Will make it much 'safer' than the way I've been doing it!

You might consider Highland Hardware's "Wood Slicer" resew blade...it is 1/2". It gives an extremely nice surface. I found them when I bought my MiniMax bandsaw and they recommended this blade for resawing. By the way I have no connection to Highland Hardware. Oh, and a few weeks ago I purchased a blade from Wood-Mizer ... 1 1/4 wide for cutting logs into lumber on my MiniMax. It's a beast and works great. Got that idea from Mathias Wandel (sp?).

great stuff, thanks. I hadn't seen the triange technique demonstrated like that (with the lines on the board) I've just seen people angle the saw when making the cut without actually describing why, thanks.

Love your videos, happened to notice your brass hammer and was wondering if you sell those or purchased somewhere else, thanks

Really helpful, thanks. I have a low-powered table saw and no band saw: would starting the cut on the table saw and finishing with a hand saw be a sensible way of cutting large boards?

Feather boards, more push sticks… no wonder I can’t seem to get this right lol

Is there a video where you go over how you build that fence extension?

Jesus! Incredible Samurai skill with that Japanese handsaw! Great stuff. Thanks.

That’s a nice looking icepick 😏

Great video. I love your presentation style, and I learned a lot. But I only counted 3 ways to resaw a board: (1) table saw; (2) band saw; (3) ryoba handsaw. What is the 4th way? Am I missing something in the video?

If you are a handtool guy, you NEED a western 4ppi rip saw for this. I have used a ryobi and even on pine it is painfully slow. A good western ripsaw, while still a workout, is much better especially in hardwoods.

You should have done the method with a Roubo frame saw. I've always wanted to use one.

How would you resaw a longer board without a super nice band saw? That's what's killin' me! My local mill charges a LOT more if I want it different than their standards (understandably) but i hate planing off an inch or so of fantastic oak or cedar.

I need some stock that is several feet long and the height and width are 1/4 by 3/16. What would you recommend? Is there any videos for this?
