Title: Another Bandsaw Question
Post by: fluxcored on December 07, 2009, 07:42:54 AM

Hi All,

I'm contemplating buying this Chinese made bandsaw http://www.tooltime.co.za/ProductDetails.aspx?id=496 (http://www.tooltime.co.za/ProductDetails.aspx?id=496), in the next week or two.

Has anybody got experience of similar kind of saws? Do you think it'll work well in a home shop environment?

Regards.

Fluxcored,

As far as I can see it's close to the Grizzly saw that I have. If you just want to cut metal of the size it states it's great and saves on the arm with a hacksaw. Now looking at the price I couldn't tell you if it's a bargin or not. I've found mine to be very useful for what I want.

Regards.

Bernd,

It's not too badly priced.

Thank you for the advice.

Regards

I have had a little bandsaw in the shop for just one day and I think it is great! :thumbup:
