while you are cutting experiment a little. Instead of turning the material more and more try pushing it a little to the left or right and see what happens

or try turning it the other way. Power tools dont always respond like you think they should. you gotta develop a feel for it.
I know I am good on a bandsaw because on the ones at school I can cut dead center down a pencil line really fast. That is why I know something on my saw isn't right.


I tryed the fence Idea, the blade just walks the other way. i will try some of this tomorrow more, when people aren't sleeping. I was pretty sure I had it set up the right way :-\
