I'm looking for a little bandsaw to cut strictly UHMW up to about 1" thick. I'll need to put some gentle curves (2" radius) in some places, so I'd like something with some throat depth. I think one of the little 3 wheel triangle saws will work good for me. Does anybody see anything wrong with these saws? Will them and an appropriate blade cut this stuff? Doesn't have to just plow through it, just a steady cut. Are they built good enough to use it a couple of hours per week?
And about the blade, how many TPI should I be looking at for cutting UHMW? And what thickness do you think? I don't see wanting anything over 1/4" thick. But don't won't a wire either, no jigsawwing here.
