Another bandsaw question

[Jay Jolliffe]

I don't have much experience with using a band saw. I bought a Grizzley 16 " saw to re saw wood for veneer. I adjusted everything like the manual said & everything was fine. I put in a 3/4 blade & it worked great. Sawed straight nice even cut. I put back in the crap 1/2" blade that it came with & that worked great for what it was. I forgot to order a good 1/2" blade when I ordered blades so I had to use that one. Now....I put in a 1/4" blade & when I tighten the blade it doesn't track right when I tighten the tension to where it needs to be. The other blades tracked fine but the smaller one doesn't.....Can anyone enlighten me into what may be wrong or what I'm doing wrong.

The wheels are more than likely crowned and smaller blades will need to be adjusted. While the larger blades probably track with the highest point if the wheel the smaller blades don.t
