Thanks for all your videos. While many other UA-camrs provide motivation and entertainment for my woodturning hobby, you have been my Academy of Woodturning.

[@wortheffort]

Thanks

Love the analogy of driving a car and looking ahead, best piece of advice for starting out and learning how to cut curves. Practice makes perfect so I better start practicing. Thank you for taking your time to explain how to use a bandsaw.

[@timpenner7858]

I'm about to get a bandsaw and I've watched a gazillion videos to help me choose the right saw and to understand what I'm getting myself into. There is good information in a lot of these videos, although much repetition. THIS video is unlike the others. It provides excellent, practical details about how to actually handle the wood while cutting with a bandsaw and how to get the cuts you want with the blade you're using. Outstanding!

What did you get?

[@timpenner7858]

@@russwetzel1972 The 10-inch Rikon. i still dont know much about bandsaws but I'm starting to suspect that this is a pretty good one. There are a couple things I"m not crazy about. My impression is that the tool-less blade-guides and its overall quality and solid build are a big help towards making the cuts I'm aiming for.

[@ericmoorehead1100]

This technique for curves doesn’t really work for say a bandsaw Box. Would like to see your ideas on cutting continuous curves like a bandsaw boxed.

[@bigwave2975]

brilliant!

[@talltexan8401]

Hay I really like your vids especially the ww'n tips I watch all of them 😀But I was wondering if you would make a project build put to music?I always liked your montages you used to make and I understand that it takes a lot of time to edit I was just wondering if you would make one or two 😁

[@wortheffort]

Look at the "Artsy Fartsy" playlist. I have a lot of them.

[@talltexan8401]

wortheffort thanks ☺️ just when I thought I'd seen all your videos

[@rick91443]

Great tips! Really enjoy your videos(there was a time when I found you just a tad bit "silly," lol,) more and more(next time where a tie?) Kidding...cheers...rr

[@wortheffort]

Thanks, but no ties... they could get caught.

[@samuelroberts334]

What’s the best all around band saw blades do u recommend?
Tpi also.
Great tip!!!

[@wortheffort]

The cop out answer is... it depends. 95% of my work is done with a 1/2" 3-4tpi blade as this is a rough cutting machine for me and I cut green wood often. That is extremely coarse and other woodworkers think me an idiot for using it so much. My other blade is a scrolling blade. Both are bought from a local commercial supply place where they are welded up to specific lengths off of a long rolled up blade. $13-$15 They don't last forever but at that price I don't really care.

[@dalecorbitt1804]

👌👍

[@pauljenkins5159]

I have a 5 1/2 that was made 1889...still going strong..

[@wortheffort]

still will be in another century
