    Default Rod Bradley

    I have inherited an old Sherline model NoBS360 bandsaw, and I have been trying to cut out a number of oval shapes out of 12mm MDF. It cuts very will for a while then it vibrates and the blade snaps. I have broken 2 blades, however I am not sure when I replace the blade of the correct tension, if there is a tracking adjustment I need to make. As I do not have a manual, and my father is not around to advise me anymore could someone help me out here or advise where I may get a manual and also where I may purchase new blades.
    Regards
    Rod Bradley.
