Turn the blade inside out.still_waters_43 wrote:I received this blade with a Bandsaw purchase I made. The teeth(?) are slanted to the RIGHT ?.... all my other blades the teeth are slanted to the LEFT!.
Can someone tell me the purpose for this blade?
I think beeg is correct. It is a resaw blade. When you mount it, just make sure that the teeth (on the cutting side of the wheel) are pointing down.still_waters_43 wrote:I received this blade with a Bandsaw purchase I made.

Sorry, I neglected to say it is a 1/2" 3TPI blade.beeg wrote:How wide is the blade? It looks like a resaw blade.
Geez! All this time I thought the tooth orientation was the 'puzzle' as well.still_waters_43 wrote:Sorry, I neglected to say it is a 1/2" 3TPI blade.
......... I guess that beats my plan B though: to flip the bandsaw, and buy a Powerpro so I could run it in reverse! 
Go with the PowerPro. You always need a good backup plan. What if you forget this info next week and the forum goes away.still_waters_43 wrote:OMG! turn it inside out! too funny
