Are you sure it is D-flat and not F-sharp? Just kidding... I've found that setting tension on the blade has to be enough so the blade doesn't wobble when making a cut. I keep adding tension until my cuts are true. Kurt

My band saw is similarly made in China. Except it doesn't even try to hide it. For what I do it works fine. Question: How tight should I keep the blade? Best answer I've heard so far was until it makes a D-flat sound when you pluck it. But it seems there is little consensus on this. So far I've been keeping it quite loose and just babying the heck out of it. Bill Swingle Janesville, CA [EMAIL PROTECTED] RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
