Back when I ran my shingle mill setting the teeth was always a problem.Tried lever setters but due to the spring in the teeth tough to do.Best way I found was a heavy piece of barstock with a slight bevel on the edge and a couple of rollpins to fit the gullets and locate the bevel behind the tooth tip.A small ballpien hammer and slight tap and the set was perfect.You must experiment with the bevel to get your desired set.Why wouldn't this system work with a bandmill blade.?? Theirs no more tendency to snap a tooth than if your bending it.Just be sure you do every third tooth. Frank C.

Seems like it would work, but it also seems like it would be very tedious and time consuming!
