re: Initial testing

I had a Delta 14 for a while before giving it to my neighbor in exchange for some work.

The problem I had was getting the blade tension right, and keeping it right. Which meant that I had problems with the blade wandering when I was resawing. A new, sharp blade would track fine, but even a slightly dull blade would wander all over the place, even after I had replaced the guide blocks with bearings and a lot of other “throw money at the problem” attempts.

You should get a lot of service out of that bandsaw.
