G'day, after retiring my old Burgess three-wheel bandsaw I've been scrounging the usual places for a cheap but reliable bandsaw.
I've had no less than three sales on Gumtree fall through in the past month for Hyco and Paulcall saws because of seller 'misbehaviour'. Frankly I'm really tired of the Gumtree shenanigans and timewasting. eBay isn't much better and I don't want anything from Aldi or Bunnings.
I'm after anything up to a 12" bandsaw of generally reliable disposition - doesn't have to be pretty or too precise by any means. I only really use it for making turning blanks and ripping old boards for my landscaping/outdoor furniture projects quickly. My shoulder can't handle doing it all by handsaw anymore.
My budget is small - up to $200 - so I'm strictly after what's laying dormant in the back of the shed. Older the better really.
I'm in the Blue Mountains NSW but can drive any direction 100kms to pick up.
Cheers,
Vaughan
