Thanks! None of us really has money to waste, especially on bad/questionable tools. Long and bitter experience has convinced me that I should buy the best quality I (reasonably) can. It is more important to have something which will cut straight longer than cheaply for a shorter period of time. A bandsaw is one of the most versatile, important pieces of equipment in anyone's shop, and a good one will outlast most of us. From that standpoint $1200 over even 12 years is only $100/year. Idle ramblings... Best. Horace Horace Greeley Systems Analyst/Engineer Controller's Office Stanford University email: hgreeley@leland.stanford.edu voice mail: 650.725.9062 fax: 650.725.8014
