The scale running along the front of the table doesn’t lie flush with the table either, which means the fence is following the variations in the table rather than sitting against the scale. Now, you will have a solid and dead-flat table top that isn’t going anywhere. Pinto – I intend to do bandsaw boxes eventually, so the table will require a flatter surface than now.

“I find the most important thing as my dear friend Scrit has mentioned is, this machine can’t tension anywhere near the stated max blade width of 16mm !!the blade i am using is a half inch 3teeth per inch HD blade from dragon saws. The tension is cranked up to where the 16mm mark is or maybe even further !!recently i have been cutting a lot of 6″x4″ oak sleepers that are a tad wet, before i cut the elm today, with the same blade!!As the pics show the saw is about half an inch of its stated max of 8”, normall standard guides, angled fence adjusted for drift, blade tracking aligned to the centre of the wheels, dust extraction a must, bit of candle wax on the sides of the blade and away you go !!. Rod as im sure you know there are sooooo many things that can compound together and muck up your cuts, a bit more information on your blade type, how you tension it ect would help,the are many older and wiser members than me who can also help.
