Hi all,

Just wondering if any [@woodtechs](https://discourse.southlondonmakerspace.org/groups/woodtechs) will be around this evening to help me use the bandsaw? I need to cut through some ~2" thick ash.

I also have a flamed maple billet that I was considering re-sawing. What’s the maximum depth the bandsaw can accept, and is the blade currently on the bandsaw suitable for resawing?

Cheers!  
Luke.
