Thanks Bazza...I have a back-log of bodies waiting to be cut...head slopes, lip cuts and popper mouths....about 50 bodies waiting to be sliced and diced. I will have plenty to feed to fishies to be sure!

Happy bandsawing Larry.

just don't forget to lower the blade guide to just above the workpiece.

No, I have a bench top band saw and I don't sell...it was the 50 bodies to do and thinking of yer big $ ball rasps (or whatever it was ) that you got for doing the popper mouths. See yer putting a lot of $ into this pretty quick, just thought you were selling, like so many of todays crowd (not that there's anything wrong with that)....Sorry for asking.... johnny

give ya bit of a hint....get yourself a wide fine tooth blade,,it'll cut much straighter than a skinny skip tooth one...plus you can resaw wood better.in other words the blade won't twist and run off your line when making long cuts.

BOAT fish do count.

Just watch your fingertips. Meatcutters don't use bandsaws for nothing. They cut clean and fast.

Larry congradulations on the new baby -- I was amazed at the ease of doing some of the cuts that took lots of cussin before the band saw!
