Guys, just a sanity check question:
Do you experience increased power contact wear when skim cutting vs rough-only?
I am primarily a band-saw, one-cut shop, so that is what I have more experience with.
As such, I get about 50-60 of rough cutting hours before the contact is worn beyond my preference.
When skimming though, I seem to get to that wear point after roughly 30 or so hours.
Am I missing something or my observation is faulty?
