Hi there,
Are you checking for co-planar when the blade is at correct tension? The wheels tilt somewhat between untensioned and tensioned situations.
Generally, you apply the width of blade that you will most commonly use, tension it up correctly, then check for co-planar. That is how I have always done it, and never had a problem.
There may also be the possibility that one of your bandsaw wheels in 'out of round' or not entirely flat itself - it it has a wobble. You can check this by removing the blade and spinning the top wheel by hand rapidly. The bottom can be checked with power on (no blade). Take necessary safety precautions etc.
Mark Duginske's bandsaw handbook is a great resource for all this setup information, which is where most of the above suggestions came from :-) A review of his book can be found here:
