Thanks Tim, so simple and so useful. I have added it to these other mods that I really must get around to: http://mikesworkshop.weebly.com/bandsaw-modifications.html

John,
I thought the blade would slide down the lengthwise side of the round piece too, so I lowered it gently onto the work with only enough pressure to let the blade cut. I kept the light pressure until the blade had established a vertical cut and only then let go and let it cut at its own speed.

Thanks Tim, simple when you know how! I just wondered if you had a technique I'd not come across before.
