[Resolved] Horizontal Band Saw Red Tagged

I’m zero for two on bandsaws today. In a completely unrelated task to the Do All, the blade on the horizontal broke. It was on its way out for a while now, it snapped right near the kink it has had in it. If we have another blade I’m happy to install it.

Yeah, Eric had been planning to install a new one. There is a spare blade on the shelves at the back of the metal shop annex. I think the packaging has a blue and white background, but you can see the blade through the plastic part.

Blade replaced and tested. Anyone using it, keep an eye on it. I think I have the tension right, but you need to shut it down if the blade jumps off the wheels.
