Hi Tim,
not to belabor the point, but can you slice soft wood with a knife
edge band saw blade ?
I do understand that a toothed blade would tear while cutting.
seems like the best of both worlds.
Also, I recently went through a similar plight. I need to cut lots
of aluminum parts with some curves and stuff. Laser and Water cut
cleanly, Plasma is rougher and has a poorer finish, but costs way
less. All of those are more expensive than the ammount of material I
will use in the next year, so a greater loss of material and using a
router will be the most cost effective method for me, at this time.
I plan on increaseing my total units so will move up to a high end
plasma before too long.
If your waste is greather in cost than a planer, you may find a poor
surface and a planer may be more economical in the long run.
Of course the second operation adds time and money so may not be as
viable in your situation.
