bandsaw help

[cody michael]

i bought a used inca bandsaw. when i turn it on the blade wobbles toward me then away from me. sbout 1/8 of an inch. you can see this when you look at the roller guide that goes behind the blade or when you look at the wheels what can i do to fix this?

Drive down to the Woodcraft store in Saginaw and get a new Timberwolf, or Olsen blade.

i had the same problem with 4 new timberwolf blades on an 18" jet. after 2 months of frustration attempting to align the problem away (it just couldn't be those new timberwolf blades, or so i thought), i got a lennox blade form iturra design. end of problem.

this is one of the t-wolfs:

this is the same saw, with the wheels still in a non-coplanar state thanks to a tpically poor alignmment job by a typically poor jet authorized dealer. the little thing on edge is a nickel:

the blade probably has a poorly aligned and finished weld. when i compared the t-wolf to the lennox, the difference in welds was readily apparent. HTH.
