Tips/Techniques On coiling bandsaw blades

Tips/Techniques
For many here this is already old hat. Some new to machining may want this reminder video. I've shown a similar technique to around 5 guys here in Calgary, but if you don't do it often, it is easy to for get, so here's a good video on how to do it:

 
oops. My explanation was flawed - 3 loops is only 2 opposing twists, not four. My fault.

Ouch! I think I just had an aneurism and then banged my head on the wall. I don't know which was worse.

I had the aneurism when I read that you think you messed up with only two twists.

Then I fell against the wall when I realized you were a lot like Einstein whose biggest mistake was thinking he made a mistake.

I think there are 4. The two you make when you fold the sides over and another counteracting one in each of the two loops when you fold the "double" down onto the third.

If there were only two, they would already be there with each of the first two folds and there would be no need for the final fold.

So, which one do you figure came first, chicken or egg?



....... Probably shouldn't have done that to you before the first coffee......:p
 
Too late. Already having my coffee. Spilled it laughing...... :eek:

Chickens are evolved from dinosaurs. Dinosaurs laid eggs. Dinosaurs came before chickens. Therefore the egg came first.

Are you glad you asked?

(Insert evil grin here)
