    Default Bandsaw Bible

    Hi All,
    Some years ago I purchased a Bandsaw (along with some other machines)
    It is a 'Sicar Top 6'.
    Having now found how useful it is, I think I would like to learn a bit more about them (Bandsaws)
    I read somewhere, once, that there is the ultimate book on Bandsaw use, available, somewhere.
    I think it was/is American.
    Anybody know what it is?

    Probably Mark Duginske though I think some of his thinking has been overtaken by this video....




    Duginske's book has a lot of info in it regarding blades etc but even some of that is out of date these days unless he had updated the book recently.

    I bought the Lonnie Bird book and was quite disappointed in it.
