I am 77 years old. When I took a high school summer school woodworking class for fun in the early 1960s.... the instructor showed us how to do that. He also talked about NOT cutting on a marked line but on the side of a line.... just barely missing that line. This was both on band saw, table saw, miter saws.... and also hand saws. I assumed everyone did it that way.... guess not!

Thanks for sharing this tip. As a veteran bandsawer cutting in aluminium, bronze, steel, as well as all kinds of wood over the past 40 years, I've been using this technique as long as I can remember. One caveat, if your cut strays from your line then so does your guide, adjust accordingly. This guide from the blade back side is especially helpful with large heavy awkward pieces that resist smooth movement along the table.

I use this method and have been for years. I cut to the line. On a recent project, I then went over the edge of the wood with my Spokeshave and maybe only 4 passes and it was done. No sanding to the line, and then no sanding at all on the edge of the board, as it was ready to accept the first coat of Oil. Great video 👍

Two years ago you steered me away from a bad dust collection system to the Clear Vue with 6” ducting.

So, today I learned that my first time using a band saw was beginners luck I guess. I basically did exactly what you explained, by default. This was like... 20 years ago now, but I remember seeing the cutout part being wider than the blade was, and figured I should only lightly adjust the work piece to keep on the line. Ended up with the nicest cuts the teacher had seen in a long time, and was asked to help others do their cuts afterwards. Again, I had never used a band saw before. Other saws, yes, but not a band saw.

This makes sense to me: I get smooth edges and very accurate cuts on fabric not by watching where the shears are actually cutting, but by watching the cutting line just ahead of the points. Something similar has to be going on with respect to human hand-eye co-ordination.

About cutting boards: what would you use for regular maintenance? Something that really confused me is that pretty much any drying oil will take at least a week to cure (? heard lots of conflicting info on this curing time matter) which is a long time to have your cutting board out of service! If you have a food safe drying oil like hemp seed or walnut, does it matter if you use it for food prep tasks during that curing time? Like if I put up the cutting board for the night at like 10 pm after a wash from dinner, sanded it, put say hemp seed oil on it, and let it dry for until the morning so like 9 am, is that 8~12 hour period enough for it dry and not immediately come off from a light rinse? Will it keep curing through the week even during use? I haven't seen hemp oil talked much about but it seems like a perfectly valid wood finish. For that matter, is there even a difference in pure hemp seed oil/walnut oil advertised for food and for wood? Researched a ton but couldn't find answers for these things.
