The guide post, shown in Figure 36, connects the upper blade guide assembly to the bandsaw. The guidepost allows the blade guide assembly to move up or down via a rack and pinion. In order to cut accurately, the blade guide assembly must be no more than 1" from the top of the workpiece at all times—this positioning provides the best support for the blade.
