Austin demonstrates how to properly measure your bandsaw blade length with a tape measure and a marker. Before you begin make sure you have proper safety gloves and protective eyewear on while handling the blade. Mark your bandsaw blade at the weld. Put the mark at the beginning of the tape measure.
