Record Power BS400 16″ Bandsaw For Sale

The BS400 bandsaw offers high quality, industrial features and large capacities to the mid range bandsaw market. This machine brings affordable solid performance and reliability within reach of the discerning woodworker.
Like all bandsaws in the range, a solid cast iron table provides unrivalled stability and solidity. An industrial style cast trunnion supports the table and allows it to be tilted one-handed on a rack and pinion. Dynamically balanced cast iron bandwheels ensure superior strength and reduced vibration – a feature not usually found on other machines at this level. The 2hp motor and 305mm depth of cut mean this machine can cope easily with large timbers yet is also equally capable of fine, precise cuts and veneers.
The exceptional value for money this machine offers is difficult to appreciate without seeing the machine first hand. If you are in the market for a high specification mid-range bandsaw, be sure to seek out the BS400 at your nearest dealer or at one of our many shows and compare it to other bandsaws on the market.

Here are some helpful tips for safely and efficiently using a bandsaw:

 

1. Blade Selection and Tension

  • Choose the right blade for the material and type of cut (e.g., fine-tooth blades for metal, coarse-tooth for wood, and special blades for curves).
  • Properly tension the blade according to the manufacturer’s guidelines to prevent the blade from twisting or breaking.

2. Adjust Guide and Guard

  • Adjust the blade guide and guard close to the material, ideally about 3–6 mm (1/8–1/4 inch) above it. This keeps the blade stable and helps reduce vibrations.

3. Safety First

  • Always wear safety goggles and ear protection.
  • Keep fingers at a safe distance (at least 2 inches from the blade) and use push sticks for small pieces.
  • Avoid loose clothing and jewelry that could get caught in the blade.

4. Feed Rate and Control

  • Use a steady, moderate feed rate; too fast can lead to blade breakage, while too slow can burn the material.
  • Let the blade do the cutting without forcing the material. Forcing can dull the blade and result in poor cuts.

5. Plan Your Cuts

  • For curved cuts, make relief cuts to remove excess material, allowing the blade to turn smoothly without bending.
  • Avoid making sharp turns quickly, as bandsaw blades are not designed for abrupt angle changes.

6. Maintain Your Bandsaw

  • Keep the blade clean and sharp for optimal performance and safety.
  • Regularly check and adjust blade tracking to ensure the blade stays aligned and doesn’t wander off.

7. Use a Fence or Guide for Straight Cuts

  • For straight cuts, use the bandsaw’s fence or a guide to maintain a clean, consistent line. This is especially useful for resawing wood or cutting large panels.

8. Stay Focused

  • Avoid distractions while using the bandsaw, as it requires full attention, especially for complex or intricate cuts.

These tips should make your bandsaw experience smoother and safer.

Woodturning Tips

Woodturning Tips

Woodturning Tips

Buying A Wood Lathe – Best Choice Wood Lathes For Sale

 

1. Start with Proper Safety Gear

  • Wear Safety Glasses/Face Shield: Protect your eyes from flying chips and dust.
  • Use Dust Protection: A dust mask or respirator will help protect your lungs.
  • Hearing Protection: Woodturning can be noisy, so ear protection is recommended.
  • Tight Clothing: Avoid loose clothing that could get caught in the lathe.

2. Understand Your Tools

  • Learn Tool Functions: Familiarize yourself with the different tools (e.g., gouges, scrapers, parting tools) and their specific uses.
  • Keep Tools Sharp: Sharp tools are safer and provide cleaner cuts. Regularly sharpen your tools using a grinder or sharpening system.
  • Tool Rest Position: Adjust the tool rest so that your tools can comfortably reach the workpiece without overextending.

3. Wood Selection

  • Choose Quality Wood: Start with softer woods like pine or poplar. Avoid wood with knots or cracks as they can be challenging to work with.
  • Seasoned Wood: Use seasoned or dried wood to avoid warping or splitting after turning.

4. Lathe Speed

  • Adjust According to Size: For larger pieces, use a slower speed; for smaller, more detailed work, a faster speed is appropriate.
  • Test Before Turning: Always start the lathe at a slow speed to ensure the workpiece is securely mounted before increasing speed.

5. Proper Workpiece Mounting

  • Secure the Workpiece: Ensure the wood is securely fastened to the lathe, whether using a faceplate, chuck, or spindle.
  • Check Alignment: The workpiece should be balanced and centered on the lathe to prevent wobbling.

6. Focus on Technique

  • Use Both Hands: Maintain control by using both hands on the tool, one on the handle and the other guiding the tool against the tool rest.
  • Light Pressure: Apply light pressure and let the tool do the work. Heavy-handedness can lead to accidents and uneven work.
  • Cut with the Grain: Whenever possible, work with the grain of the wood to achieve smoother cuts and reduce tear-out.

7. Practice Makes Perfect

  • Start with Simple Projects: Begin with basic shapes like cylinders or beads before moving on to more complex projects.
  • Experiment with Techniques: Try different cuts and tool angles to see how they affect the wood. Practice makes a huge difference in developing a steady hand and understanding tool dynamics.

8. Maintain Your Lathe

  • Regular Cleaning: Keep your lathe clean and free from dust and debris. This will prolong its life and ensure smooth operation.
  • Check for Wear: Periodically inspect the belts, bearings, and other parts for wear and replace them as needed.

9. Finish and Sanding

  • Sand While the Lathe is Running: Start with coarse sandpaper and move to finer grits, sanding along the grain. Keep the sandpaper moving to avoid creating heat that could burn the wood.
  • Apply Finishes Carefully: With the lathe running at a slow speed, apply your chosen finish evenly. Consider using oils, waxes, or lacquers depending on your project.

10. Join a Community

  • Seek Advice and Inspiration: Join a woodturning club or online forum where you can ask questions, share projects, and learn from more experienced turners.
  • Watch Tutorials: There are many online resources, including videos and tutorials, to help you learn new techniques and improve your skills.

11. Patience and Safety

  • Don’t Rush: Take your time, especially when starting a new project or learning a new technique.
  • Stay Focused: Always stay focused on the task at hand. Distractions can lead to mistakes or accidents.

Woodturning is a rewarding craft, and with practice, you can create beautiful, functional pieces. Enjoy the process, and don’t hesitate to experiment and make mistakes—that’s how you learn!
