==Description==
A vertical bandsaw is just like any other type of bandsaw in that it is a power tool used to cut various metal and wood pieces. The saw consists of a solid band of metal with edged teeth on it for ease of cutting. Those looking for uniform cutting results will make use of this type of saw. While their main function is to cut curved or unusual shapes, they can also be used for straight cutting. These types of saws, specifically designed for metal cutting, are available in vertical and horizontal varieties.

====General Procedure====
====General Procedure====
# Unlock the Blade Guide by turning the knob labeled "Lock" on the back of the machine. This allows you to alter the height of the blade.
# Set the Blade Guide Height by turning the knob labeled "Adjustment" on the back of the machine. A good height is about 1/4" above the piece you are cutting.
# Lock the Blade Guide by turning the knob labeled "Lock" on the back of the machine. This will secure the blade and provide a better cut.
# Check the stock height by placing he stock next to the blade to ensure the 1/4" margin is there. Double checking is always a good thing.
# Aim the Blow Off Nozzle. This blows away all the shavings that occur during the cutting process. Aim directly where the blade will come in contact with the stock.
