Anyone here with a wood cutting bandsaw

I need to use a bandsaw for less than 5 minutes to cut a shape from a piece of
1 1/4 inch thick mahogany.
I live in Chandler
Thanks, Steve

I have a jig saw,...they are ok for thin stock, but on thicker stock, the blade will wander and I won't get a square cut.

Just have to know. What is it?

Well now,...no one has a band saw?

If you all must know, I took on a small funiture repair job, thinking I could go to a local cabinet shop and get a small peice of Mahogany that I paid an obscene amount of $$ for a minimum length that I have to get a part cut out from.

Places I have gone to either they don't have a band saw or don't want to take 5 minutes to cut the peice out for me.
What ever,...I may have to buy a table top band saw before it's all said and done.

Well there we have it. Now I will be able to sleep tonight. Wish I could help Steve, but I don't have a band saw.

Buy a band saw. I'm sure you will find plenty of other use for it in the future.

Tim,...
I'm gonna bet I buy a band saw before you get your Outty fixed or replaced

and probaly use it more frequently than you ride

Get that thing fixed so we can do some great camping

luke · #15 04/23/12, 5:17 PM

I could but won't, as I like having one.
