by Mark Duginske

Everything you'll ever need to know about using and maintaining a bandsaw is in this latest guide from Duginske. He explains all the features of this versatile tool, and compares some of the current brands.

Blades are covered in a chapter of their own, describing steel types, tooth patterns, and maintenance, including how to braze a blade. Full chapters then handle adjustments, sawing straight and curved cuts, using templates, making and using jigs, and joinery. Line drawings and color photographs complement the text.
