good thing i watched this the other day. the 'agate eater' blade on my brand new HT14 was bent from the factory. luckily it is a easy fix to bend it back in to shape!
This works perfect. I have a Green line in my HP14" and it has a spot that is a little twerked (rock came loose in the vise) It took me all of 1 minute to straighten it back out (it was a very minor spot) I love the Greenline, even after 75 to 100 cuts I still have a few segments with paint still on them! This saw and blade are built so strong and accurate. The best value in new lapidary saws!
Note that these are not tension core blades I am showing how to straighten. Our HP Segmented Blade which is black is tension core as is the MK303 and both are more difficult to straighten once they are bent- it can be done but it is a different technique that I have not done a video for yet as I have no bend blades to demo on.

We're so glad this video helped you. Thank you!
Hope I can do this to my 18" saw blades. I am building a wet saw to cut soapstone and have 3 warped blades.
