    Where to look

    Bandsaw speed question

    I never take mine of the fastest speed and it work fine for everything. Its great for cutting micarta and g10 if you get a 10-14 tpi blade. Dont need a bimetal for those but the bimetal is great for all other steel.

    11 second question

    I tried the MC Master with 1095 and it did not harden properly, I also tried water and had cracks, I just did some folder blades and springs with a 7% brine solution and they turned out perfect. I am finally out of 1095 and will not be buying any more until my brain dies.
