Your video is a life saver to many. Tons of mistakes for lack of experience will be eliminated. With the tough economy, resawing boards with some good imagination for creativity produces more from the money spent. THANK YOU .......... well appreciated.
It's beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I was initially wondering why you had a bandsaw with a 24inch??! DoC then you showed off some of your lamination work. Amazing.
Great job. I wonder if you ever encounter what I always seem to encounter? I am primarily re-sawing ash. And when I do, the boards both cup away from the blade creating a huge gap between the boards. So if you try to put them back together, i have a huge gap in the middle… So if I am splitting a 2 inch thick by 8 inches tall board for example, I can rarely get anywhere near 3/4 after rejointing and planing because of the cupping on both pieces.
I find that boards always nice to some degree but it really comes down to the drying process and how fast it was kiln dried. Too fast and the center isn't fully dry and immediately starts to dry after cutting and the internal tension being released. Crazy grains can get into this issue fairly quickly as well. If you can source it air dried material that is finished in a kiln is a great place to start with if you are going to break it all down by resawing
This has been my problem too -- learning how to work with thinner wood -- 1/4, 5/16ths for small boxes and such. I've tried resawing, but my boards end up so warped and I have challenges re-milling them to something usable afterwards. Would love a video about how to avoid this!
Do you ever have issues with blade 'drift'?? Very nice bandsaw, like the guides, heavy duty. Nice blade too. You should talk a little about the blade you're using.
Defintely could go into further detail. I use a Laguna resaw king and in my experience the tension of the blade and the widest blade width you can get help control some of the drift that can occur
@@jameswesleyfurniture yep, the laguna blade might be the best, a little pricey too. I just started bookmatching chunks of maple for guitars.... can be challenging

Great video! Question, without a drum sander, how would you recommend sanding the resawed veneers?
James, help.. I dream of building a Sam Maloof Rocking Chair… Question: where does one get a copy the plans for such a rocking chair?

Do you adjust for drift with the fence?
Where did you purchase that clamp ?
some concerning things in this video, especially the nervous clutching for push stick etc
Interesting find in the video...
Heighth is not a word. The word is height.
Thankths, only been speaking English my entire life and I just can't get it right
