MoreHammering is a process of making sure the blade is true and flat. It is exactly how it sounds - the blade is put on a steel anvil and hammered with special hammers to accomplish this. Unknown to a lot of people is that plate tension (the stiffness of the plate) is more important than the flatness of the plate.
More2019-2-7 To start with use a straight edge that will reach from the canter of the saw to the rim marking all the high spots. then hammer on your marks, as you work use a shorter straight edge and so on till the plate is free from lumps twists and high spots. this maybe all you need to do if the saw is to run on the same mill it has before.
More2018-10-24 Place the blade on the anvil. Hammer down all ridges or lumps while using as few blows as possible to avoid expanding the metal too severely. If there’s a loose area, mark it and hammer between the mark and the blade’s
More2014-10-25 Tension is put into a blade so it holds its shape in both vertical and horizontal position; so it doesn’t ‘cup’ or wobble with speed. Think of a rolling pin rolling out a piece of dough from the center to the edge. Tensioning presses the blade around the middle area, forcing tension into the main body of the blade
MoreFrom contributor G: First, a very small piece of wood in the wrong place can heat up the blade. On the 1/8", if you have a two head block mill, you need to turn the log every two cuts 1/4 or 1/2 turns. This will keep the stress equal.
More2009-6-20 Make it a "func_movelinear". Set an appropriate name, speed (90 is good) and move distance (this will depend on how large the slot is that the saw is moving in. In sawmill, It's 390). set this as the parents of the prop, the hurt brush and the blood particles (You'll place these in a minute). To make it keep moving, you need to set some outputs:

MoreFrom Alaska to Nebraska, sawmill owners seek out Jim Voigt and his saw blade reconditioning service. Customers have good reason to come to him. Voigt charges an average of $150 to hammer a warped circular blade back in shape, a huge savings over the $2,000 cost of a new blade

Multiply 16.66 RPS x 4.97 (cir) = 82.80 feet per second of band being pulled through his cut. So if you’re using a 13’2” for example, that blade is making a complete revolution 6.24 times per second.
More2013-11-14 We have not had a warped blade in over 5 years in either 5160 or 52100. After forging heat the blade to above critical, quench in room temperature quenching oil (we use Texaco type A) hold the blade in the oil for a minimum of 35 seconds, then re-heat the blade above critical and quench again for a total of 3 quenches.
More2011-4-18 sawmill is the saw blade itself. It looks simple—a spinning disk with sharp points on the outer edge. But the blade is actually a sensitive and critical piece of spinning metal, and the teeth are equally important. Let’s exam-ine the circular blade more care-fully. The

If you experience pitch buildup on the blade, add some Pine-Sol to the water to keep the blade clean as it cuts. Metal like this bolt in the middle of a beautiful walnut log ended the life of a new blade. Just another day at the sawmill.
