Always enjoy your videos. Thank you for the valuable information. Im new to Sawmilling. Still learning the ropes. I cut a lot of hardwood oak, hickory but I also cut softwood pine and Fir. Is there an issue using the same 7 degree hardwood angle for the softer woods.
I'm from south ga. I been sharpening for 25 more years I sharpen all name brand blade what you said in your vedo is correct. But I cN speak for these others guys just my self, I was raised in a saw.mill world ..I know about wood and what the blade suppose to do and how. All I'm saying is you haven't tried my work yet, yes I've got ahold of some crazy bands these so call bandsaw sharpeners do
Please forgive me if I am silly but...Blades are made by first cutting the tooth and gullet. That process causes the sharpening of teeth. Then the teeth are set left, right and left center. So the sharpened edges are twisted away from when formed. In contrast,,,,,We sharpen a dull blade with the teeth set. So our sharpened teeth derive a very different (and uniform) cut angle. This does not seem to be what occurred initially during blade formation,. Am I incorrect?
.025 seems to work best for 1½ blades in softwood up to 14" wide. Less is heat, more is wasted HP. Blade going through wood is just like wings of an airplane.. If something is off it's going to dive or rise... Unless you hit a pocket of pine pitch.. that's like hitting black ice on a curve.. anything can happen..
I've sawed for myself and others over the last 5+ years and this is the best explanation of set related to cut that I've come across
Good video
I like my diesel/band aid

Sir Good day, what kind of gauge you use to measure the tooth of that blade
Hoping for your response
I have a pretty extensive video going into all that. Give this video another watch, and at the end there should be the link
Amazing video Sir
