Favorite Band Saw Book

[browders]

About 6 months ago I purchased a band saw primarily for the purpose of resawing lumber. It works great, but I know that there are many projects designed to be made using the band saw. I was wondering if there are any suggestions for good books on the subject. How-to or project books. Given the expertise on this site, I know the answer is out there.

 

Thanks.

Even though I turn to books quite often to learn about woodworking (and everything else) I've never read a book about bandsaws. However do Google bandsaw boxes, there are several. Bandsaw boxes are easy to make and lots of fun. Be sure to post when you made your first one.

Yah, the only thing I can think of is bandsaw boxes.  They have a lot of books about that.  You can check your library, too.  They usually have them.  Other than that, the only other ones I see are maintenance and tuning guides.  YouTube is a great source too.

Boy do i need a fine adjustment book about band saws.The cheap-o band saws really lack quality control of them.

I don't own any of these books but, I did a search to give you some titles and authors

that you can research on the internet and look for in the library.

If you ever get in toy making, model making (as in Toys and Joys site) you will love having your band saw.
