+The Metalab currently has 3 different Bandsaws. Two Bandsaws are from Joe since [[2014-05-01_Jour_Fixe]].
 A bandsaw can be used to cut wood, metalls and plastics not only in straight lines, but also curved lines.
+== Current Status ==
+* Green Saw (Joe): Band is broken, otherwise useable
+* Blue Saw (Joe): Operational, but band is a little bit rusty
+* Blue Saw (Metalab): Upper and Lower Band holder is broken - not useable at all
 == How to Operate ==
+* Check if band is correctly tightned (Do it with caution, because the band is very sharp and can easily injure you!)
+** See Repair Guide otherwise...
+* Check if the band is OK
+** See Repair Guide otherwise..
+* Adjust the upper band holder to the correct hight (It should be right about your workpiece)
+* Switch it on
+* Saw
+=== General Tips ===
+* Do not use the bedstop (Seitenanschlag), because the cut off piece can easily lock up there and press the band aside
+* A Bandsaw is a free-hand tool, mark you cut path and cut there instead of measuring on the machine
+* The band swings in every direction a few parts of a mm. Consider that while you are sawing!
 == How to Repair ==
