    Default For the Bats.

    Hi Nicko,
    There is a 14in. B/S for sale in Vic. for $280.
    Mate, Australia is a big place, & to help is hard work, so think about changing your Location, so we can all help you.
    Hoping I'm not being to blunt, but just trying to help.
    The 14inch. should be any amount big enough to do your job, & it is a very good price.
    Regards,
    issatree.
    Have Lathe, Wood Travel.

    As said a 14'' will do fine but dont go for smaller than that. Reason being they go through blades quite quick and those small blades are often more expensive than the 14'' blades. You will end up using the saw for a lot of other stuff too so best get something reasonable up front.


    Regards
    John
