Wood Slicer Vs Timberwolf

But then i tried woodslicer blades and they really are a step up in smoothness.

Wood slicer vs timberwolf. I thought i would buy one of each and compare the results. Ive been having trouble getting a good cut with it from day one. I still think they are good blades. Highland hardwares wood slicer is a unique blade among our picks.

The tpi varies from three to four which helps reduce vibration and produces a smoother cut. From various posts the top two blades seem to be either the wood slicer or the timber wolf. Super sharp thin kerf precision resawing blades cut quieter and smoother and the quality of cut is simply fabulous. So ive been doing a bit of resawing but its been with a fairly cheap blade.

For the wood slicer blade i could only find it being sold by highland woodworker. The only issue was that the timber wolf blade had some light rust on it. The first step is giving your bandsaw a good tune up to set the table perpendicular to the blade get peak performance from the guides and ensure the blade tracks true. Are one of the above my best choices or are there others equally as good.

I bought a timberwolf 14 4 tpi and its stinks. Our legendary wood slicer bandsaw blade for resawing was selected as best all round performing resaw bandsaw blade by fine woodworking 2004. A test to determine which blade is better for re sawing. Im looking for a decent blade that will resaw.

I learned a lot of lessons back then about how to make any bandsaw and its owner a cant miss resawing team. After reading this review i ordered two timberwolf blades to see if i could get the same results on a ridgid 14inch bs. I can barely cut a piece of 6 cherry. I used timberwolf blades for a long time and was very happy with them.

Now it is time to find good blades for resaw. Ive heard good things about both the woodslicer as well as the timberwolf. I plan on doing quite a bit of resawing on soft stuff aspen but also have quite a bit of oak to put on a diet. Reduced vibration also results in reduced noise.

I consider it a waste of money but there is nothing i can do about it now. Could that be a problem. I found that the correct speed is to push them through fairly. Im running the 14 jet wriser and no other mods.

Part of the reason is the wood slicers unique variable tpi design. I was planning on using a 34 blade. Review basic bandsaw setup. I used the 12 inch as 3tpi 32 in blade which they say is good for thick green wood and i could barely cut anything with it.
