[pianotech] Band saw question

[Delwin D Fandrich]

I also have a Delta 14" bandsaw. Actually, it's old enough now--upwards of
40 years--that I think it's labeled "Rockwell." But it's the same saw. I
have yet to lower the band tension between uses. I suppose someday something
horrible might happen as a result but I've seen no ill effects as yet.
