The "Afterbay" in Oroville, Ca. USA. Up Northern top of California.

If it's one tooth just index that tooth to the opposite pusher and give it a little push. Then index it to the correct position for 2 teeth and push it back up to what it should be. If the entire blade has more set than wanted I will normally just get another blade that has less pitch if it's for a specific wood species or frozen log whatever. The less you can push the teeth around the better life you will get out of the blade, but you can flip the blade inside out this will put the teeth opposite direction and then set the tool up just like normal except you will be pushing set out of the teeth rather than putting it in. With that said in the last 15 years I have not done this once.

Hello, Yes you would need each size. I can set up both on one. The 3/4 shift to one side and 7/8 to the other. Problem is then you have to back the size of everytime you use the opposite size so the wrong pitch do not touch when using the opposite size. Very time consuming. It's easy to have each size and once set up for your preferred set you never have to adjust it. They are always ready to go. So I highly recommend getting one for each pitch.

You only have to check the tooth during the initial setup. Once it's set for each side for the proper amount that takes all of about 10 minutes to do you are good to just roll through the blade or blades doing an occasional spot check. Of course I can make a fully automated setter and can make a lever operation that sets each tooth and advances. But that's already available and those machines are very very expensive. This gives you a setter at home that is easy and uses a vise you probably already have.

Very good job! Having the advance is great. Early on I tried and tested several setups to include the lever for advancing teeth. But quickly ran into issues with different brand blades having different shape so the advance would not fit every blade on the market. So back to simple. Also price plays huge factor as well. My personal setup was similar to yours. I sold it along with my original bandsaw mill. Now getting another mill and will build another indexing setter and my sharpener is so close to being ready to release. Sourcing parts that I can depend on has been a huge issue. But it will happen. You done a great job and nothing beats being able to set and sharpen your own blades.

Hello John! It's in final stages. Works great now just sourcing a few bits for a run of them. Bolts and materials are getting pricey. Having trouble getting some in. So may have to make a few changes on the hardware. So once I have a solid parts list I will list the sharpener up. I say give me about 2 weeks it should be ready to go. Thanks!

I have all the common pitches listed up. You need a setter for each pitch blade. If I don't have your pitch or blade listed just message I will make one for your size.

@@goldendredger thanks for your reply mate, I have very recently purchased the mill and in the process of modifying it, I will check the blades tomorrow and make sure they are all the same pitch. I live in Australia mate, any problems with postage?

Yes very close. Having some supply issues that are causing some delays for both metal and hardware. But got it sorted out I think so I can do a final version and get this out there asap. So hang in there with me just a bit more.

I'm definitely interested in the sharpener as well...!

@@goldendredger Interested in one too.

Thank you!

Thanks!

I am working on a simple electric sharpener that uses a similar setup to this to sharpen as well. I been super busy so have not finished yet but few weeks should have it available for sale along with my setters. Watch for it soon on my channel and eBay.

"Set" and "pitch" are 2 different things.

I am working on a budget sharpener now. Next few weeks I should have it available. Thanks for ordering a setter. I am very busy making them. Makes a guy feel good to be able to help out others to saw on a budget the same as myself. Pretty cool.

@@goldendredger Cool! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with! Thanks for offering budget minded tools for the hobby sawyers.

@@goldendredger were you able to build a sharpener? Link?

Did it work out ? I hVe the same saw

Thank you very much! Happy milling to you!

Super! Glad to hear! Happy sawing and have fun! Thanks for buying one.

Sorry about that. I had the link in the description. Looks like UA-cam removed it. Here it is again. This is for 7/8" pitch. For 3/4" or 1" see my other items for sale link on eBay. www.ebay.com/itm/Bandsaw-blade-tooth-setter-7-8-affordable-blade-set-home-sawyer-WoodMizer-Cooks-/264249461492?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

@@goldendredger thank you very much sir

So if you just move the blade so the straight tooth is in the middle of the 2 push bolts. So of course the 2 are offset back to back but slide it till the middle neutral straight tooth is in the middle then set. If it's pushing NOT the correct direction for your teeth to line up with one straight tooth in the middle and that's why it's not lining up you need to simply turn your blade inside out then the straight tooth will long up in the middle just fine. So flip your blade inside out. Just don't forget yo flip it back before you put it back on your saw.

What's your blade specs? But it is easy. Measure the tip of one tooth to the very next tooth tip. It will be 7/8" or 3/4" or 1". This is the pitch of the blade. These specs are also provided by your blade manufacture of the blades you are using.
