2.12 Blade Rejection
Sometimes blades cannot be resharpened. Reasons to reject blades for resharpening
include:
the blade is coil set (the blade is over-stressed and will fold on itself),
the blade is missing 2 or 3 teeth or more in a row,
the blade band has been twisted,
the blade band is too low for the grinder (the blade has been sharpened too many
times/too much material has already been ground from the blade),
the blade has no set on one of its sides,
severe rust is present,
or the blade has tooth spacing uncommon to Wood-Mizer blades
(i.e., a competitor’s blade).
