The Bandsaw brings to many unique, work-saving capabilities to the shop that it's easy to see why it consistently rates as our most popular Special Purpose Tool.
What you'll do with your new Shopsmith Bandsaw
Although Bandsaws were originally developed to make curved cuts, it didn't take long before users realized that it offered a number of great, straight-line cutting advantages, as well. For example, not many Table Saws (commercial or otherwise) will cut stock up to 6" thick...or cut metal. Here are a few of the jobs your Shopsmith Bandsaw is well-suited to tackle:
Cut Tight Or Sweeping Curves - No home shop saw will cut faster than a Bandsaw...and with Shopsmith's generous-sized support table and full range of 1/16" to 5/8" wide blades, you'll have just what you need to cut simple of intricate curves in wood plastic, and non-ferrous metals.
Make Compound Cuts to Create 3-D Objects - Curved table legs are often created by first cutting the required curves on the two opposing faces of a board - taping the scrap back into position - then rotating the board 90?and repeating the process.
Quickly Cut Woods Up To 6" Thick - Whether straight or curved, the Bandsaw is your best choice for cutting thick woods other saws just can't handle.
Resaw Thin Boards From Thick Ones - Sometimes, you need wood that's thinner than the "standards" for special projects. Armed with a Bandsaw and a 1/2" or 5/8" Resawing Blade, you can stand boards up to 6" wide on edge and slice thick boards into thinner ones, just like the lumberyards.
Pad-Saw Multiple Items Simultaneously - Need four identical bracket feet for a small clock or box? Use Double-Stick Tape to create a stack of boards of identical thicknesses (up to 6" total) and saw them all at once, then separate.
Cut Metals, Plastics & Other Materials - When making straight or curved cuts in non-ferrous metals (up to 1/4" thick), plastics, rubber and other materials, no other home shop Saw will out-perform the Bandsaw.
