Well said as usual. Thanks Dustydusty wrote:Because the blade is not suppose to track in the center of the wheel.
The manual that comes with the bandsaw explains the adjustments very well UNLESS the reader has the preconceived notion that the blade is "tracking wrong" and that is what is going to get "fixed".
Where would one get such a "preconceived notion"? Hmmm - By reading manuals and wood working magazines that are discussing almost any bandsaw other than the Shopsmith Bandsaw.
dbos1254: Read posts #2, #3 and #5 this thread. I think that there is a real good chance that your bandsaw is "right on".
