At around 17:00 Alex goes from resaw to small blade guide. He says strictly for 1/4" or less. When I have seen him he has used a 3/16" for reindeer, and bandsaw boxes, and switches to an 1/8" @ 30:15 to make a snake (really tight turns)

Thanks to everyone that replied.
I think Carter will be getting an order soon. I watched the video Steve provided and that gave me an idea. Right or wrong I pushed out the upper guide bearing just a touch to tension the blade and I actually got them cut out much easier. It will be touch and go on getting them done by Christmas but we'll see.
