Product Description
We have turned one of our most popular bandsaws into an extreme machine. We made the stand heavier, the table bigger, and the cast iron wheels stronger to take on your toughest jobs. We've even added a Re-saw Fence and a built-in light. And our ingenious 2-piece table extends all the way to the left yet, allows the table to tilt to 45 degrees without removing anything. Just look at all these features and we think you'll agree, this is one awesome bandsaw.

Summary: 'EXTREMELY GOOD' 2009-04-15
Comment: As far as I am concerned, this is the best value on the market. And free shipping from Amazon is a plus. Saw was easy to assemble and works like a charm.

Summary: Great Saw 2009-02-22
Comment: This is a very nice saw for the price the fit and finish is first class it has plenty of power the guides are nice and are easy to adjust This saw is far better then my 14 inch delta grand addition band saw. the only complaints I have which is kind of a big one is the cheap trunion they should have made a castiron trunion so the table was stiffer and the little table on the side is useless as far as I am concerned the fence is also to heavy if you ask me but this is a great saw and I'm glad to have it in my shop

Summary: Great 1st Bandsaw 2009-02-16
Comment: Like I said, this is my first bandsaw so I really can't compare it to others. However, everything everyone else has said is true.
Fit and finish is excellent.
The saw has plenty of power.
Dust collection is pretty good.
The included fence is SUPER NICE!
I was able resaw a 3/16th strip off a pine plank with the stock blade with no problems. Later I got a Timberwolf 1/4" blade and made 5 bandsawn boxes for Christmas gifts. I have also used it to cut some spalted maple that I found in a firewood pile into boards and veneer.
For shipping, I got the liftgate service added. In the end, the bandsaw came in two very manageable boxes though. One for the base and one for the saw. Assembly was straight forward, but I HIGHLY recommend getting a strong friend to help. I did it by myself, so I know from experience. Getting the riser block on *alone* is pretty difficult and requires some precarious balancing which in retrospect was pretty stupid on my part. After a lot of cursing, I got it on though.
Get this saw! You won't regret it!

Summary: Excellent Value 2009-02-13
Comment: I bought this saw to replace a 30 year old Craftsman 12" that had served me well. This saw has reinvigorated my desire to build furniture. The power, fit&finish, make it a pleasure to use. I do almost all my ripping on a band saw so power and accuracy are very important. This saw has exceeded my expectations. One comment: the dust vent must be attached to a vacuum for dust removal. My old saw could exhaust the dust into a box.

Summary: Pretty Sweet 2009-01-19
Comment: Easy to set up, but heavy. I should have gotten the suggested help of a friend from the instructions, but I just couldn't wait that long. It runs smooth and strong. The light is a good addition. I bought it mainly for resaw purposes. The only issue I have is minor, but the lower set of band adjustments (thumb screws) have a very tight access for my average sized hands.
