Ok, got the band saw going. I bought a Wood Slicer blade from Highland and on the test board it cut like butter cross cut and rip cut a black walnut scrap I had.
Grabbed a small Almond limb ( about 4 ish inches thick) and it split it well, except for some weird tear out on the upper end. The first pass was a very small amount. As I cut each pass the tear out got worse.
No fence to ride it against I was eye ballin' it. Maybe I wobbled a little. Any thoughts.
I will try to post a pic when I get home.
