Lewis Allison Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Hi guys!, I have a shop Fox w1825 bandsaw. And I just bought a 1” Laguna resaw king blade for it. But I can’t seem to keep it from wandering towards the fence, and cut in a straight line. I have done every adjustment I know of to take away the drift, but it seem to make any difference. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a RK blade that as soon as it touched wood it wanted to take a right turn, or was it a left turn .... any way i exchanged it for a new one and it cuts laser strait. Also if you get a RK blade that leaves a rough cut like you went after the wood with a dull beaver, it might be the brazing on a few teeth. I had a blade that developed some burs in the brazing. I took a diamond plate to it and removed them and it cuts nearly as smooth as my table saw now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I’d say it leaves a pretty smooth cut...I just can’t get it to cut straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I just have a defective blade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
