Success with Bandsaws

Product Description

One of the most accessible workshop power tools is also one the most versatile: the bandsaw. And this new entry in the popular Success with series explores the many creative possibilities of floor-standing, stand-mounted, and portable bench-top models. With these practical instructions and color photographs, woodworkers can quickly master basic skills such as ripping, cutting angles, and mirror cutting, then practice advanced procedures like making dovetail, mortise and tenon joints and cutting variable-curve edges—and even make their own money-saving jigs and templates. There’s also basic information on bandsaw anatomy, blade selection, initial set up, routine and periodic maintenance, dust control techniques, and workshop safety.

Walthers - Mountain Lumber Co Sawmill Kit N

2008-09-07T16:07:00.001-07:00

Product Description
Mountain Lumber Co Sawmill Kit N Whether set in the days when Shays and Heislers ruled the forests, or served by contemporary diesels and trucks, the Mountain Lumber Company can be the centerpiece of any logging operation. Everything you'll need to start work is included, from the Log Conveyor to the Burner. The Mill Building is enclosed with board and batten siding and covered with a corrugated metal roof. This style is typical of permanent operations or those that ran in areas where the weather could turn cold. At the back is a canopied area, where fresh-cut boards are sorted. To keep the machinery running, there's a nicely detailed Powerhouse with twin smokestacks. And for the final touch, you get a Sawdust Burner, used to dispose of scrap lumber and sawdust from the cutting operations. Typical of buildings constructed from the 1920s to the 1940s and still in use today, your finished model fits easily into steam- or diesel-era layouts. Keep a steady supply of timber on the move to your mill with the 45' Logging Flats, available in 3-Packs (933-38851 Series) or as individual cars (933-8850 Series), both sold separately. All cars are fully assembled, ready for service.

The Good Woodcutter's Guide: Chain Saws, Woodlots, and Portable Sawmills

2008-09-07T15:52:00.000-07:00

The Good Woodcutter's Guide: Chain Saws, Woodlots, and Portable Sawmills

Greg Blanchard, a professional logger, says of Dave Johnson's book, "I enjoyed the book immensely and was constantly amazed to hear someone else describe a predicament which I all too often find myself in. The information is accurate, realistic, and practical."

Chain saws can do in a weekend what used to take a wood cutter an entire summer, but at the same time, used improperly or carelessly, they are certainly one of the most dangerous of power tools and can cause serious injury and even death.

Johnson provides a thorough and very readable overall look at choosing a saw, chain brakes, spare parts, felling, managing your woodlot, hard hats, safety equipment and guidelines, advice on sharpening and maintenance, cutting and selling firewood, and the pros and cons of portable sawmills in what is the most comprehensive overview of wood cutting written in recent years. Not a dry, technical manual, Johnson's accessible writing style is similar to Gene Logsdon's in his well-known The Contrary Farmer. The author's expertise on the subject is reinforced by the book's selection for special distribution by Bailey's, the nation's leading mail-order supplier of gear for loggers and foresters. --Mark A. Hetts

Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw

2008-09-05T06:33:00.000-07:00

Dual Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw

This is what a miter saw ought to be: accurate, sturdy, powerful, versatile, user-friendly and packed full of cool features.

If we had to choose a favorite aspect, it would have to be the handle. It’s vertical. It’s horizontal. And it’s a couple of other things in between. It locks quickly and easily into any of four positions, so both lefties and righties have complete comfort and control.

This saw is beefy -- it weighs in at 55 pounds and it’s got a nice, wide footprint that promises the ultimate stability, and sliding extensions bring your support area to 37-1/4 inches. If you’re in the market for a stand for this saw as well, we like both the Bosch TracRac as well as the DeWalt DW723.

The dual bevel is a great feature, swinging 47 degrees left and 46 degrees right, with positive bevel stops at 31.6 and 33.9 degrees for flawless crown molding cuts. For miter cuts, the blade swings an impressive 52 degrees left and 60 degrees to the right. There’s even a micro-fine adjustment here, letting you override a detent by as much as 2 degrees. Now that’s precision.

We absolutely love the fence on this saw – Bosch calls it a Speed-track sliding fence – because it’s a full 4 inches tall and has a beautifully readable inch-scale on it. It’s perfect for crown molding, handling pieces up to 6 inches wide when angled against the fence.

We’re suddenly rethinking our earlier statement about our favorite feature on this saw; on second thought, it might well be that all the controls – including the bevel lever – are up front. We’re pretty tired of reaching around a saw body to set a bevel, so this is a most welcome upgrade. Adjustments are so much faster and easier, and all the scales are right up front, too.

Capacities are generous, thanks to the slide, with a max cut of a 2-by-12 at a 45-degree bevel and 3-5/8 by 12 inches when the blade is upright.

And yes, this saw has a laser cutting guide, but unless you really want one, we wouldn’t let that sway a decision on this saw one way or the other. It’s a nice feature if you’re likely to use it, but most of us woodworkers prefer to get a visual on exactly where that blade meets the wood.

In all, this is a beauty of a saw, with features you aren’t going to find on other saws in its class. And we still can’t pick our favorite between the handle and the up-front controls. It’s all good. -- Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Sliding Table Saws Great For Special Projects

by Leroy Calstard

Table saws of the larger size, such as those used by an experienced amateur and the professional, can be used to cut sheets of plywood and framing lumber for new construction. But this saw certainly is not the best for trying to follow a scroll pattern. Both of these saws are available in bench models, but the similarity ends there.

Anatomy of A Table Saw

A table saw is separated, by definition, because of the table on which it is used. This platform is a cutting surface that comes in various heights and sizes. In the workshop of a professional the floor model table saw is used for larger projects, usually to cut longer, straight lines and to produce cut lumber in larger amounts. This type of saw is also made in smaller sizes and may be found in home workshops and in the shops of professionals who concentrate on smaller projects. One of the key features of these small saws is portability.

When researching or buying table saws it is best to understand a few of the key features, such as the handle or arm on some saws that can be adjusted and moved to make cuts. Other saws are designed to tilt or change angles for mitre cuts and other special needs on trim, moulding or decorative work. There are even sliding table saws used by some for particular cuts and special projects.

Interchangeable blades are a key benefit of most table saws as well, allowing for use on different woods and on different projects. The course blade is used for particular types of wood and types of cut, while the finer blades may be used for smaller projects and finish work. The variety of blades available from saw manufacturers has increased dramatically over the past couple of decades. Table saw blades are available for special projects such as cutting tile or small stone, with water often introduced to reduce heat and help the cutting. Some saws and blades are even used to cut metal.

Table saws have a guide or “fence” that is the primary way of keeping the wood and the cut in line. Most experienced saw users will look closely at the fence or guide system when shopping for a table saw, because this will determine the quality of cut made. In addition, a good guide system can reduce the amount of labor and stress on the operator.

Professionals and experienced amateurs also take a long look at the motor size and construction since this is the heart of any good power saw. The best reviews of are unsolicited. The Web is a good place to look for blogs and forums that can help someone choose a good table saw. Following the advice of those with experience, plus choosing a reputable manufacturer, will generally lead to the purchase of a quality table saw.

Sliding Table Saws Great For Special Projects

2008-08-22T16:57:00.000-07:00

By Leroy Calstard

In the world of woodworking, furniture building and light construction there are many different saws available. Which saw is chosen for a particular job depends on what type of wood is used, what kind of cuts are being made and, of course, what kind of woodworking project is at hand. As most people know, just about every saw will make a clean straight cut if it is sharp and if it is used in the correct manner. But using the proper saw in a certain situation can make all the difference.

Table saws of the larger size, such as those used by an experienced amateur and the professional, can be used to cut sheets of plywood and framing lumber for new construction. But this saw certainly is not the best for trying to follow a scroll pattern. Both of these saws are available in bench models, but the similarity ends there.

Panel Saw Buyers Guide

Panel Saw Buyers Guide

Miter saws are very important for many woodworking projects, these are used to make accurately angled cuts to make frames and baseboards. Standard miter saws only cut a few angles, more advanced models can be adjusted to the precise degree. Compound miter saws can also cut beveled edges. You should decide which type you should buy depending on your budget and needs. You might be interested in purchasing a saw with the extra features. Sliding saws are suitable for cutting larger pieces.

Compound Miter Saws

These types of saws can cut at horizontal and straight angled cuts. These saws can be tilted so that you can cut beveled edges. Most standard miter saws do not tilt which means they cannot produce beveled edges. Modern miter saws are table mounted and use a circular saw which is pushed through the wood. These saws are very long lasting and also fairly portable. This makes them suitable for people working on sites.

Double bevel saws or dual power compound saws are able to cut straight and horizontal angles, these are similar to a compound saw. These are also able to tilt in both directions which makes them much more usable at producing beveled edges. These saws are much more versatile when compared to standard compound saws.

Sliding compound saws are basically the same as standard compound saws however they can cut much bigger pieces of wood as the saw can be pulled forward to allow bigger sizes of wood.

The latest version of compound saw is the dual compound sliding saw. These saws are capable of cutting miters and bevels. These can tilt in either direction which makes it possible to put bevels on the wood. These can also slide forward for cutting large pieces of wood. These are portable and can be moved from location to location easily.

Radial Arm and Miter Saws

Radial arm saws are very flexible, many people will prefer to use one of these saws as their bench saw. These can make a lot of different cuts, including dado, ripping stock and crosscutting. These can also tilt to cut bevels and miters. You can also use them for routing work and drilling.

The thickness of wood you can cut with the saw depends completely on the size of the blade of the saw that you are using. You should carefully select a saw which is capable of cutting the types of material which you will be using. Dewalt radial arm saws are considered the best ones available as these are durable, reliable and very easy to use. This saw is suitable for most woodworking needs.

Panel saws aren’t very common in wood working workshops, however they are often seen in lumber yards. These are capable of cutting very large pieces of wood. These are used to cut large sheets of wood including paneling, and plywood.

These panel saws are also used by contractors when building new homes or making home improvements. Some of these saws cannot be moved and are fixed in position. Others can be moved and are portable. Contractors generally prefer portable models as they are easy to move between locations.

Tile cutters are tools

2008-08-22T16:31:00.000-07:00

While ceramic tile can add beauty to any room in your home, the chances of it fitting perfectly might one in a million. If you’ve ever worked with tiles you already know that the outside row always has to be cut to fit. Cutting ceramic tiles might seem intimidating, but it’s easy if you have the right tools and know what they do.

Tile cutters are tools that don’t need any power to run and are great at making simple, straight cuts. They’re the safest and least expensive type of tile cutting tool, but they’re limited in the types of cutting jobs they can do. Working similar to a glass cutter, a tile cutter scores a line across the tile so that they can be snapped at the line.

The tile cutter is usually a flat metal frame that is padded which holds the tile in place. An overhead arm has the cutting head with a wheel that scores the marked line. The cut edges are a little rough, but you can use a sanding stone to smooth them down.

Tile saws are electrically powered tools that utilize a diamond tipped blade to cut through the ceramic tile. The blade is constantly cooled by a stream of water to prevent overheating. Tile saws are faster and you’ll get much more accurate cuts and the edges will need very little smoothing if any.

Unlike regular table saws, tile saws have the motor and blade overhead. The tiles are placed on a sliding table that is moved by hand back and forth until the tile is cut. If you need your tiles cut at angles, you just simply angle them on the table.

Portable tile saws resemble regular circular saws that you use in carpentry. A diamond tip blade is used to cut through the tile and the saw and you move the saw by hand. You can purchase either wet or dry models, these don’t have the speed or accuracy of standard saws.

For larger stone tiles, brick saws work very well. They heavy duty versions of tile saws and also use water to cool the blade. Both the motor and the blade are overhead mounted using a pivoting frame. And, like with the other saws a diamond tipped blade is used to cut through the material.

The brick or tile is laid on the table and slid under the blade. You have to pull the handle to bring the blade down onto the brick and heavy springs pull the blade back up after the tile is cut. You can use this kind of saw on stones, bricks and the larger quarry tiles.

These types of saws are very expensive and heavy duty definitely means heavy. And, if you’re not going to be cutting big tiles you’d be better off getting a regular tile saw. Brick saws are really more for professional tile and masonry layers.

Remember you should always wear your safety gear when working with any power tool. But, you might want to take precautions and wear goggles even if you’re cutting tiles with a non-powered hand tool. Small chards of tile or glass can easily get into your skin or eyes and cause serious damage.

Work slowly and pay very close attention to where your hands and fingers are in comparison with the blade. If you can, hold the tile in place with a clamp. If you have a safety apron, it’s even a great idea to wear one anytime you’re cutting tiles.

An Introduction to Portable Table Saws

2008-08-22T16:29:00.000-07:00

By JT Miller

There comes a time in every amateur handyman's life when he realizes he needs a table saw. There are four types of tables saws to choose from, though for the beginner there is really only one choice. There are cabinet saws, contractor saws, hybrid saws and portable, sometimes called "benchtop" saws.

The portable table saw is often the best table saw for the beginner woodworker who does not have a large work area and will only use the table saw for small projects at first.

A portable table saw is designed to be light enough to be moved from one spot to another and is often placed on a bench or counter. Many portable table saws have extra bases available for an additional fee and few come with the base, though most are light enough to be carried if needed.

Bench top table saws usually weigh anywhere from forty to eight pounds, so you can't exactly carry them around like a hammer, but you can easily move them in and out of storage as needed. Most portable table saws can use standard sized blades like other table saws, but there are still some drawbacks you should be aware of.

Because portable table saws are lighter in weight they aren't often as sturdy and steady as their bigger brothers, the contractor or cabinet table saws. Portable table saws usually have some size limitations to cuts due to support issues and most don't have the most sophisticated measurement and metering systems available.

Most portable table saws are made with the amateur handyman in mind, though in recent years several of the more established tool companies have come out with some very strong and durable bench top table saws which are being used by more and more contractors and professional wood workers in a pinch.

When trying to choose the best portable table saw for your needs, consider what kinds of blades you think you'll want to use, whether you'll need to change the blade angle or blade height and whether you'll need to disassemble the unit or want to upgrade the table saw fence and rail system. When looking at specifications you'll want to compare weight, rip capacity, portability and base configuration and the size of the motor. Also consider the ease at which various adjustments and blade changes can be made. For some people this is important, but for some the basic features of a low-end portable table saw are just fine.

The advantages to starting out with a portable table saw are many. Portable table saws can do the standard ripping and cutting but may be harder to use for more complex cutting and may be lacking the ability to use things like a dado blade or advanced fence and rail system. If you're just starting out then a benchtop table saw is the way to go because they are by far the least expensive of all the table saw types and they can be moved and stored out of the way fairly easily.

Not all portable table saws are the same. Features and price vary widely from one table saw manufacturer to the next, so compare prices and features closely and try to pick out the table saw that will best fit your present and future needs.

How To Choose the Right Table Saw

2008-08-22T16:24:00.000-07:00

Congratulations to decide finally taking this step and buy a table saw their own! He saw a table is an incredibly versatile tool that we hope to give years of enjoyment and satisfaction. If you're a hands or handywoman around the house will be returning to your table saw over and over again as new projects emerge. Maybe you walk through the living room and decide what you need to install some custom-made built-in books. Your table will help rip and cutting boards with a precision that can not be found in a circular saw. But buying a table saw a store of home work is not like go out and buy a hammer or an electric drill. Of course, there are a lot of features and options to decide, but the tables saws can be very large and expensive pieces of equipment and wants to make sure you're getting exactly what they need and want for the coming years. Here are some things you should consider before buying a table saw for himself: Size of the mountains: This may sound like an obvious, but I know a lot of people who have spent much money on the table saws that almost never use because the mountain took so much space in the store that ends up being moved off the road. If you're shopping for a cabinet, contractor or hybrid table saw then definitely plan where you're going to see the place and whether or not you have enough space around the forehead, sides and rear of the table to see food in large chunks wood occasionally. If space is a problem, you might want to consider a benchtop or portable table saw that can be placed on a shelf or in the corner when not in use and retreated to a car or extent of his legs when needed.Size projects: You also need to take into account your skill level and what we will be doing with your table saw. If you are going to be building a spice rack then you probably do not need a big table saw cabinet and whether it will put in wooden floors throughout her home with custom shelving books and then a cheap table can who did not see the example their needs. Besides taking into account their current needs also about your future needs. Is Cree that may have larger projects in the future? If so, you might want to purchase a table saw with a few more features then you need now so that it can "grow" in its saw.Budget: This is often the deciding factor for many people. Table saws vary widely in price but generally the highest paying the highest quality coming from his. A portable table saw can cost between $ 100 to $ 500, while a cabinet table saw can cost several thousand dollars.

Band saw filing

2008-04-22T07:24:00.000-07:00

Band saws in timber mills range in size from about (4" x 22ga x 10') to (16" x 11ga x 62') and can be any of the three main different band saw type. Which are: Single-cut saws are as the name implies, have teeth on a single side. Allowing for log or work piece cutting in one direction only. Accordingly, double-cut saws have teeth on both sides. These types are designed for machinery that allows the log to be cut from either the front or the back direction of travel. "Sliver tooth" saws have teeth on both sides but they are different. The (usual) front side have teeth with a regular style tooth. The back of these saws have a longer style. The log is cut in a forward direction as with a single-cut but as the log returns, the saw de-burrs the cut(path where the saw passes) allowing for a cleaner finish. They are run for 4 to 24 hours then sent to the sawfiler for maintenance.

The sawfiler inspects the saw for needed repairs then gumms, fits and benches the saw as necessary.

Gumming involves grinding the gullets of the saw teeth to a particular shape. The sawfiler uses a semi or fully automatic grinding machine for this. Band saws operate under high stress and heat and in the presence of wood chips. Carbon migrates into the steel from the wood. Gumming prevents case hardening and fatigue cracking of the band saw gullets. Resaw Band saws (teeth on one side only) may be left or right handed, depending on which way the teeth are pointing and which way the plank falls from the log when cutting. Double cut saws (teeth on both sides) are always gummed right hand teeth first.

A precise tooth profile of the gullet must be maintained for proper saw operation and wood chip removal. Ease of cutting greatly depends on this. The shape is determined by the type of wood and cutting conditions. A sawfiler will maintain the gullet shape by manually shaping the grinding wheel with an abrasive brick, and the set-up of his grinding machine. Variations include face angle, face length, back angle, gullet width and depth, and a frost notch (if necessary). Typical band saw tooth dimensions are 1-3/4" tooth space x 3/4" gullet depth x 3/4" gullet width (grinding wheel width) x 30deg face angle x 16deg back angle.

Fitting means tooth dressing and involves; swaging, shaping, gauging, and grinding. The tip of the saw tooth is swaged to a flair, then the sides are compressed in slightly with a shaper tool to an exact kerf. Then a final grinding pass is made. The usual gauged tolerance is +/- .005" in kerf, and < .003" side to side variation. The same grinding machinery used for gumming is used for fitting.

The saw kerf is usually made this way from the base saw metal. Sometimes, however, the kerf is made with stellite or carbide tips, in which case swaging and shaping isn't needed, although gumming is still required. The kerf may also be 'set' with a punch and hammer, with the teeth bent left, right, left... Set teeth are rarely used.

Benching is the leveling and tensioning of the saw. When a band saw is run on a mill is it stretched with thousands of pounds of force, and during operation the cutting edge heats up. These forces and temperatures cause the saw to deform. Benching deforms an un-mounted saw in a way that counteracts the operating stresses, and allows the saw to pull flat and cut straight when in use. It takes months to learn benching.

Benching is done in a dark room with a stretcher-roller machine and flat anvil (see picture above). A single light at the benchman’s work station, along with ground gauges, allows the sawfiler to measure level and tension.

Leveling is done with a crossface hammer and stretcher-roller adjustments. Cross face hammers are available in left and right hand versions. Each filer has his own hammer which he carefully dresses.

Tensioning is done with the stretcher-roller. This machine has hardened rollers above and below the saw. They rotate slowly and pinch the saw when a lever is cranked, rolling a thin strip through the length of the saw, stretching the metal where it was rolled. Careful placement and force of the rolls deform the metal in a way that counteracts the forces the saw sees during operation. More rolls are placed in the mid-section of the saw. Resaws have the back pulled to counteract the uneven heating of the cutting edge. This is done by rolling the back (non cutting edge) of the saw. The back is measured with a three pin gauge, and is usually around .003" per three feet curved.

Benching involves the simultaneous solution of multiple deformations introduced to the saw to counteract the predicted stresses of the saw in operation. Benchman can easily recognize variations in steel batches.

Other band saw duties include welding broken teeth, fixing cracks, and trouble shooting operating problems.

CNC equipment is starting to evolve to the point of being able to do some benching and fitting tasks.

Peterson Portable Sawmill Cuts a wide Board

2008-04-16T07:28:00.000-07:00

Peterson Portable Sawmill Cuts a wide Board
A unique feature of all Peterson Portable Sawmills, is the ease of double cutting by a single operator.

A double cut is the joining of two horizontal cuts together to obtain a wider board using both sides of the blade. With the Peterson range, there is no need to turn the mill to achieve the double cut as you will see in our videos.

Please note: the process has been slowed down for this educational video clip. The model being operated during this footage is our Automated Swingblade Mill (ASM), but the double cutting feature is standard with all Peterson mills.

Portable sawmill

2008-04-16T07:24:00.000-07:00

Portable sawmills became popular in the United States starting in the 1970s, when the 1973 energy crisis and the back to the land movement had led to renewed interest in small woodlots and in self-sufficiency.

Prior to the advent of the portable 'mill, small-scale sawmills were generally cobbled-together affairs constructed and operated by (almost always) two men with a penchant for tinkering. This was, and remains, a traditional occupation for Amish men; unlike most mechanical systems, small sawmills typically do not use electricity.

The portable 'mills represented the first effort at careful engineering and design. Unlike traditional mills, they used a resaw blade of the type used on a band saw rather than a circular blade, which reduced weight and cost, and reduced the size and weight of the bearings and support blocks. It also allowed for a different design where the head, consisting of the blade and a power source, moves back and forth while the log being cut remains stationary. This is in contrast to traditional mills where the log moves on a trolley while the blade remains fixed.

Portable mills can be trailered and set up on site, next to the trees being cut. There is a good degree of shimming and alignment to get the rails set up straight, and this takes time. Some business transport their mill to harvest urban timber where moving the logs would be impractical.

Larger mills have recently come on the market which are portable only in sections. These are faster and can handle larger logs.
