Postscript: band saw issues

Hi Everyone,

Well, the band saw isn't working. I bought a replacement bearing from Graniger that very closely matches the original bearing:


With that done I began to use the saw again and I noticed that the blade wasn't tracking properly through the wood. Just as I noticed that BAM! the blade snapped.

We took the saw apart early this week and all the parts have been cleaned and lubricated and  adjusted. I'm going to need to figure out what's going on with the tracking of the blade.

Stay tuned.
