Great video! I placed an order for one of each size of the Green Wood blades, 5/8 and 3/8. I expect the 3/8 will spend most of it's time on my Harvey Alpha 15" bandsaw. I look forward to trying both out. Cheers!

Marc sent me here. What a resource! Thank you Alex! Just picked up my very first bandsaw. I did the set up following the manufacturers recommendation..mostly. I made a conscience decision to adjust the bearings that just so happened to match your recommendations, as well as the blade path on the wheels. I'm going to take your advice once again on the tension. I'm also keen on the 3/16" , 4tpi blade from Carter, for only $30!!! c'mon ya can't beat that! I look forward to perusing your video catalog and learning from a pro! Thank you so very much!

Thanks for the tips on the stabilizer on the back bearing!! I always thought I bought a defective bandsaw and pushed it past the groove. I gotta reset that and see how it prolongs the life of my blades!!

Good info thanks for posting.

Search KZread for a video titled: "Band Saw Clinic with Alex Snodgrass" Not only is it the greatest bandsaw instructional video on KZread, but I would also argue that it is the best instructional video for ANY tool on KZread.

Great info on blades! I heard your recommendation on the greenwood 3/8” in another video m, and was going to ask for more info. Now I understand the reasoning- it’s like running a decent combo blade on a table saw, rather than constantly changing back and forth between a rip blade and a crosscut blade. Thanks for covering all the different choices.

Good stuff Alex as always!

It sounds like my theory of bigger is better (like 1" would be better than 3/4" or 5/8") is flawed (which is why you are making awesome videos and I am not lol).

On this advice I am now using the Carter 3/8" blade and, on the whole, it's fine. But the contention that it saves wood compared with the Laguna carbide-tipped Resaw King blade is simply false. Yes, the carbide-tipped teeth take a slightly wider kerf, but they cut much smoother - just about ready for sanding. The Carter Greenwood blade saws rough! Stock comes through with about the same surface as lumber from a mill. By the time you get past all of that wooly surface you will have lost more wood than to the Resaw King kerf, and done more work to get there.

@bandsawlife2660

understandably it comes off with a bit of bias, and it just seems weird to not touch on blades like a resaw king when its so highly touted for cut quality and its durability. yes theyre expensive as hell, but they can also be sharpened multiple times so its not as big a deal. i get it, running a really wide 3/4 blade through a half hp or even 1hp saw would be a ton of work. but id imagine modern day 1 3/4hp and up saws can run a 3/4 through most domestic hardwoods without too much hassle and other then attempting to resaw a full 12" of very dense exotics it wouldnt be outta its element. slow sure, and def not the saw and blade youd wanna run all day everyday doing that, but an garage shop worker is probably trying to maximize all of his $103/bf ebony stock lol

Hello Mr. Snodgrass and Thanks for Your time and all the informative content. I’ve just bought my first Bandsaw it’s a: Harvey Industries, AMBASSADOR C14 3HP 14" bandsaw, it takes a 125” blade. I will be following your suggestions on blades with a. Custom 3/8 GW" x 125" x 3 - Resaw & wider radius Custom 3/16" x 125" x 4 - tighter radius, would this be okay for outside of bandsaw boxes? Custom 1/8" x 125" x 14 - bandsaw box drawers and other tight radius work. Also, I see a lot of recommendations for the Laguna Resaw King, but I don’t see it offered in anything below ¾ width. Will this width work with my bandsaw? I know you recommended not going above ⅝ width on a 14” bandsaw but the quality of cut and the lifespan of said quality cuts have raised my interests and could use a little help with this decision. This blade would be for quality cuts on dry woods with the capability of clean veneer sizes and also bookmatched grain patterns. Carter doesn’t offer a "Band Saw Stabilizer® Guide System for Scroll Cutting" for my bandsaw. Can you point me to an alternative manufacturer or info on an alternate method/bandsaw set-up for making these kinds of tight radius cuts? Thank You so much for all the excellent info you've provided to the woodworking community. Mike Lopez
