Re: Help with a bandsaw
I real cheap and flexible way to slow down small 110vac motors is to use a dimmer switch. I have one made up that I use for everything from slowing a filter fan down for noise or changing the heat of a woodburning iron. A simple 4 outlet junction box with a short cord out of it with a dimmer and one dual outlet installed is all it is. Can even setup the outlet so that only one of the plugs is dimmer controlled.
If the blade is pushing off the wheels though, that would indicate improper tension or misalignment of the wheels or guides.
