The Bandsaw Book

The bandsaw is found in three out of four professional wood shops. In fact, it's the most widely used woodworking tool of all. Although deceptively simple, a steel blade rotating around two rubber-clad wheels, the bandsaw does its best work when it's properly tuned. In The Bandsaw Book, Bird gives you all the information you may have wished came with the owners manual plus a lot more, like what to look for when buying a bandsaw and how to tune it up for optimal performance. Organized for easy access, the book provides in-depth, practical information on setup, tuning, choosing blades, and operation. Also covered are all bandsaw techniques from basic to advanced. More than 225 color photos and illustrations. USA origin.
