PEP BB tool.wood.bandsaw - Sharpen a Bandsaw Blade

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the wood badge in tool care.

Bandsaws are a great way to get some exercise and cut trees.  While a dull bandsaw gives you even more exercise, it's no fun.  Let's sharpen that bandsaw!
