Tom, one thing I've found with bandsaws is that every blade tends to pull to one side when using a fence. It helps to have a fence that can be adjusted to an angle that lets the blade cut parallel to the fence. Even when cutting metal, the fence can be set by cutting wood.
You cut in a few inches along the fence, then measure the piece. If it isn't parallel, you adjust the angle and take another cut in a fresh part of the wood. Repeat until the cut comes out parallel. Then it should be good until you replace the blade or something damages the blade.
