I got enough money from my customers to get me my
X Mas gift I order it tomorrow. A brand spanking new Band saw

RIKON 14" Deluxe Bandsaw

Rikon Model 10-325 features 2 speeds (1445 & 2950 ft/min), 13" resaw capacity and a powerful 1-1/2 HP 110/220V motor.

Congrats - I have been considering replacing my bandsaw with the rikon for the additional capacity and larger motor. I look forward to your review.

Congrats, Ricon.

Just remember, they use bandsaws to cut meat and bones for a reason. Paint a 1" wide red line across the table in line with the blade edge. Fingers never cross that line.

Have fun,
