BAND SAW

A band saw is a special piece a machinery found in a workshop. It is a versatile saw. We will be using it to cut cardboard into 10x10cm squares. These squares will be the basis for some electronic circuits we will be developing.

SAFE USE OF THE BAND SAW
  • Be sensible
  • Give the person using the band saw 1 metre minimum of clear space
  • Plan what you will do on the band saw before you start
  • Make sure the guide post has been lowered to a centimetre above the cardboard
  • Use a fence (or guide) to ensure the cut is straight
  • Use a pushing piece to avoid fingers or hand getting close to the blade
