  • @gittnjiggy2
    @gittnjiggy2 3 года назад

    the safest way I've found to open up a new band saw blade that is twisted in a circle like your was is to undue the tie that is keepimg it together ( or two ties) then find a clear area and throw the blade. This way there is no way to have it hit u in the face or arms.. Just a suggestion. Great channel

  • @wtfthischannelshit

    Good thing he is tall. With those cradles in the middle of the table, I'd barely be able to reach the rear end to work on it. Have to rest my belly against the table. :)

    Watch your videos alot. I used to be a machinist and one thing I can pass on is if your horizontal bandsaw feeds slowly when it breaks through the metal it won’t break teeth off. But I’m not a know it all ether so keep up the good work.

    Next time you change out your bandsaw blade, turn the old bandsaw blade into a great fillet knife. Make it a full Tang, trim the blade at the end to come to a point you get a great fillet knife. for fish cleaning

    Didn't think of it earlier, Matt and his crew should have come by your shop to help with Papa Dar's YJ rebuild and you, Paul could have gone down to Winder's to help Fab Ratt the The Corvair build, Looks to me Matt could have used some HELP. T-shirts and Hats look great, hope to get a hat for x-mas. The quality of Paul's work and teaching his son's a skill is Top Notch!!!

    • @FabRats

    foreign steel made from melted down scrap has has lots of hard spotsin it that ruins a blade in 2 seconds, before you can shut off your machine. I have started using abrasive blade cut off saws. It takes longer but is cheaper than replacing a lot of band saw blades.

    Hi Paul, Hi Papa Dar: Just a little message to let you know that Papa Dar gets to sleep "anytime" because he may suffer from Sleep Apnea. Please have a look on the net - it is quite a simple thing that gets men tired and killed little by little (rare on women). It's a very simple test to check do - please let Papa know this. All the very best - Love your stuff!
