bandsaw

The nature of tools is why a good oscilloscope or bandsaw is still a good oscilloscope or bandsaw 25 years later.

A bandsaw is a fantastic tool, but if you try to use one without reading about it first, you'll end up losing a finger.

It was a Abloy Classic key, so it was trivial to copy of it from bolt using lathe and a bandsaw.

Yesterday I just got a new blade for my bandsaw, it was shipped 10 days ago.

I'm not sure I'd blame the bandsaw in that instance...

However, there are also several hackerspaces that have woodshops and whatnot, so it seems like a short hop to think that if computery people can work as part of a multidisciplinary office next to a bandsaw, why not work alongside daycare workers?

I was slightly disturbed, however, watching the video when it showed someone's hand way to close to moving bandsaw [1:49] and miter saw [2:10] blades (what appears to be 1-2 inches away from the blade).

This stuff particularly applies to machinery: the horror stories about people getting hair and clothing caught in machinery or looking away for a second when using a bandsaw are always a reminder to be careful no matter how many times you've used the machine before.

Yes, the first book set was to test the "bandsaw" protocol and getting it back into electronic format.

As I noted elsewhere, that semester of night courses at the local JC has improved my machining abilities drastically, as well as illuminated me as to actually planning the order of operations (y'know, "step 1: bandsaw", etc).
