I would like to thank everyone for their helpful suggestions on how to remedy my 14" harbor freight bandsaw. I replaced rubber belts with new link belts & changed my blade to a 1/2" flexback blade with 3TPI &put it on the second slowest speed. I was able to cut through a piece of 8/4 red oak with No Problem! Thank you ! Thank you! Thank you! Much appreciated!!!!!

I bought a linkbelt to replace my rubber belts. I hope that helps and I will try a slower setting for more torque.

Thank you. That guitar played fine last night I picked it up today when my band came to rehearse and the neck was separating from the body. I was so disappointed.

I made the body from walnut and the pickguard. I bought the neck on eBay..
-
On ebay.I just finished this guitar. This is a guitar that I have wanted to build for 2 &1/2 years. Made the body & bought the neck I had to cut the body out with my jigsaw. But when I tried to cut a Tele body out red oak it burned up my jigsaw.

I think it might be the belts slipping because I cut a pickguard on it last night and it cut fine. But when I try thicker stock it stops the blade and I turn it off then turn it back on and the motor runs but the blade doesn't turn. I half to use a scrap board to .make the blade move then it will turn and get up to speed. When I go to cut the thick boards again it stops the blade again.
