Re: Bandsaw Troubles

You could also perform a test by using different thicknesses of plastic, wood, and aluminum, noticing when the blade feels like it is running wrong. As sanddrag suggested, try adjusting the tension of the blade tighter. You could also be feeding too fast, which would cause the blade to twist off your marked line very easily.
