George those $99 Delta band saws are nice .Think I've been beating on mine 5 yrs. bought new blocks .... seems much faster and narrow blade(that comes with it ) better for handcarves. I have the Delta 14" saw too .. Like the little guy better .. I use the bandsaw and the V-block because I'm hydro orientating first and cutting lip slot in the stock when its round .. I know why you epoxy before lip is in .. I bet its because you like to get a good coat behind the lip .. can't do that with lip in the way .. I use the plastic coated playing cards to save lip slot also .. Just gotta remember to pull them out before epoxy cures .
