I really wanted to use it for re-sawing but found that my blade was dulled just after the adjustments to it, for both the 14" and extension blade. At first I thought I was doing something wrong, but quickly realized that you get what you pay for; not positive, but they probably sell the cheap stuff (Spring Steel). I plan on getting more proficient with my band saw but right now I use my table saw to re-saw for thinner pieces.
So what blade is my best bet for the money? What is the best source, book, website or other to learn more about band saw techniques?
Once again...Thanks!
