Welcome! / Forums / Project Series / Frame Saw / Drilling blades!?
Hello,
I recently started on the frame saw project, and I’m to the point where I need a blade to start lining up holes and shaping the saw. I got this blade from Amazon after seeing it recommended elsewhere on the forums: Woodstock Bandsaw Blade. I notice that it’s 3/4″ which is bigger than the 1/2″ most are using?
Anyways, I cannot drill the holes for the life of me. I heated up the blade using a torch until it was bright red. I let it cool. I used a center punch to line up the hole, and then I started drilling. I’ve drilled and drilled, and I cannot seem to get through. What gives?
Also, I have to perfectly match the blades to continue to use the saw, right?
