After hand sawing wood blanks and then spending way too long cleaning up the mess in order to get it flat i have decided its time for a bandsaw of some sort.
After reading some threads here i have seen conflicting opinions regarding having a dedicated wood bandsaw for scales, and then something like a porta-band for profiling knife blanks; or just using a porta band for everything.
So i just wanted to get some updated opinions on the matter and see what you guys use.
I wont be buying two machines so if i go with a wood bandsaw ill keep using my angle grinder for profiling knives, but thats alright it only takes 15 minutes or so anyway.
