STUMPED? Q&A: Using Carter Blade Guides on a Shopsmith Bandsaw

IMPORANT NOTE: I believe that the excessive blade drift encountered in this video may have been a result of the “Stupid Bandsaw Trick” shown several videos back, where the blade on the Shopsmith bandsaw can be twisted. The amount of drift I encountered was unusual, and I’ve ordered a new blade and will test this phenomenon shortly. In short, this MAY have been fake news! In this video, we follow-up on the install a set of Carter Products ball-bearing blade guides on a Shopsmith bandsaw and answer your Questions, Comments & Cheap-Shots.

The can says it works on aluminum and since it comes in a can saturating a cotton wadding, it's quite convenient to just tear off a little bit to polish whatever needs polishing. I'll have to test it out and report back. Here's a link: https://amzn.to/3bCeWPQ ✅ Visit http://www.MyGrowthRings.com and join the conversation by becoming a FREE Channel Member!
