I have a 14" Delta band saw with a 6" extension. I made a mistake to buy the blade for 3/4" width re-cut when I bought the bandsaw. All my reading and experience since then has convinced me that the saw cannot handle such a wide blade. The 4" saw blade was not moving properly on both wheels at the same time, probably due to over-tensioning the saw frame. I have bought Olson 5/8" and 1/2" saw blades and the 5/8" saw blade works great . I haven't tried the 1/2" saw blade, but expect the same result. I wouldn't normally turn it from the 5/8" to the 1/2" product range, but the blades seem identical except for width Also, the results were so good compared to the 3/4" blade on my saw that I wanted others to know that there is a limit to using a blade less than 3/4" on these 14" saws has ohmic value.
