Bandsaw – temporary table
Friday is cleaning day so got my part of that chore done so I can head off to the workshop for a little session before I take Holly for her rehab walk.

The left side of the saw now has a blade guide.

Bandsaw – cutting wood !!!
We have reached a milestone with this project – cutting wood !!!
Bought a bandsaw blade from CARBA-TEC today and this evening fitted the blade onto the saw, made some adjustments and turned on the power – it works !!!
No blade guards as yet so stood BEHIND the saw and did some test cutting – elation!
