I wish I had a bandsaw that is worth a crap!. I had an old cheap saw that
you have to hold the wood at a 20 degree angle to cut down a line. I took it
to the dump and pushed it off the back of the truck. I finally gave up and
bought a RIGID brand for about $500. Now I have to hold the wood at about a
30 degree angle to follow a line. Totally worthless! I am considering buying
Carter Guides, but I might just be wasting my time and money installing
these on a Rigid saw. Any ideas or suggestions?

I'm in the bandsaw camp. Scribe a line, cut and plane. Joint remaining
surface, lather rinse repeat.
I freehand accurately to a line, no jigs and such, not necessary.

I use a wood slicer blade from highland woodworking
http://www.highlandwoodworking.com/woodslicer12resawbandsawblades705to137.aspx
and found some tutorials on youtube for setting up for drift angle.
I guess the resaw blade is actually for resawing wide boards into very thin stock
or making veneers, but I like the fact it is only .022 wide, so less waste...

Barry,
I think your problem is the blade and a tune up. I have had good success with either
Carter or Timber wolf blades. Next check the tires on the big wheels. Then
check tension on the blade. Make sure the blade is tracking correctly. Should
be good after that. After all the saw is just a mechanism to spin the blade.
Good luck.
Jack

Jack; if you could make a YouTube video on how to make a bandsaw work the way they're
supposed to, it would go viral. I've fiddled and fussed with the guides
and wheels and knobs and adjustments on my (admittedly, inexpensive) bandsaw
and I'm like Barry... nothing I do seems to make it want to cut straight and
vertical unless I feed the stock into the blade so slowly that I might as well
just use hand tools to do it. Even a jigsaw can cut vertical cuts, but they
are hell on thin stock and once the jigsaw starts the stock chattering, I just
force the blade through it with plenty of extra outside my cut line to get done
and hope I can sand out the imperfections ;o) Can you understand why I don't
work at NASA building space hardware, but build experimental low and slow aircraft
instead? ;o)

I had a band saw, then sold it and got a Ryobi BT3000 table saw. Problems
gone.
Cut all my 1/4 x 1/2 rib stock, longerons and ply with it...everything, no
extra sanding or planing.
I found it more versatile than the band saw.
