    Default You call that a bandsaw? This is a bandsaw

    Saw this at a workshop I've been in this week. I asked them what they cut with it. "Whatever we want to!"

    Nah! Not that big. BIG bandsaws need a pit for the bottom wheel. I'm sure i've seen one on here somewhere. Maybe 30 inch wheels?

    That could be Stopper's bandsaw (54 inch). See thread https://www.woodworkforums.com/f132/r...d-resaw-90740/
    Cheers.

    On that Gary Katz site, I don't think I'd be sitting with my legs where the saw filer has his.

    Don't think he needs them for his job, right???

    Love the caption under photo #21 or so "everyone wears hearing protection". Right... except for that guy in the foreground...
    EDIT: Looked closer and he might be wearing ear plugs, but can't quite tell.. If he is, I'm happy to be wrong...

    IMO bandsaws and band resaws are two different beasts that cannot be compared.

    Default Bandsaw 72" wheels

    If you're in New Zealand, you can buy this bandsaw but it seems to be in kitset form.
