Portable bandsaw setup: Which blades?

[Scotchmon]

I just counter sunk the screw holes on my original table, but I was a hair off, so the screw was just above the table top.

Mine stand a hair proud, too. I don’t think it’ll be a issue.

Yeah, the material should slide over those. Mine were the angled flat head screws for a countersink, so the material catches on the lip every time!

I have to take my table off too, for the blade changes but I added toggle clamps so it's pretty fast.





My kerf cut goes to the rear, so I pull off my table from the front of the saw.

Works well.

I believe it was at the Portaband website. I can look up my invoice a little bit later.

Its been a while but when I went looking for them, because they were recommended here, they were pretty much impossible to find. I ended up just going to Home Depot and getting the Milwaukee brand.

Looks like you made your own table also and you blind tapped those holes.

Don't see any legs coming off the table. What does the whole setup look like?

It must be too close of a close up picture.
I Do have through holes tapped into that plate

Give me a bit, I'll take a couple more pictures

Until very recently I saw reasonable results with the Lowes pack of Lennox Wolf-Brand 14/18TPI. For whatever reason the last pack was pretty terrible and didn't last worth anything. I'm not sure if it was just a fluke though. I'm going to give them one more shot before trying something else.

The last couple boxes of Lowes Lennox blades that I have used have also been a little lackluster in performance.
