My Used - Newly Acquired - BANDSAW

MICKRI: The wooden boat forum will be at the beginning of my to-do list tomorrow!
I appreciate your whole collection of posts.

EDDYDE: Your info about the 10" table saw is Excellent. Do you know if thin, kerfing
blades are readily obtainable in that diameter?

You can get 10" diameter thin kerf blades but that may not be the best choice for resewing. Thin kerf blades are more prone to heat warping and resewing generates a lot of heat. What you definitely want is a ripping blade, with less teeth that a regular blade. Shop around and see what's out there but stay away from the big box store, blister pack, cheap-o blades. A good quality blade makes all the difference. What kind of wood are you going to be resewing?
 
Something I haven't seen mentioned yet is to resaw 16' material takes a 32'+ space to work in.
