It should serve you well. I’ve avoided having a tablesaw and most other machines in my workshop for years now as I’m mostly hand tools oriented with exception to my 14”band saw and lathe they’re very useful assistants
Mobile base has been one of the best additions to it next to blades and an LED light

Hi Hangfire,
We have the previous model of this saw at our Men’s Shed. It is still going strong after 4-5 years of pretty rugged treatment and we’d buy one again.
Regards,
Brian

Laguna 18BX Bandsaw issue with the new CE model
Hi, Just thought I'd let people know that I took delivery of a new Laguna 18BX this week and discovered something annoying.
To get CE compliance they have fitted a deadman brake onto the motor. This is IMO superfluous since you already have a foot brake that stops the blade from turning and cuts power to the motor.
The worst thing about this is that it makes it almost impossible to turn the flywheels when the machine is turned off. So adjusting the tracking on a newly installed blade is a pain in the aorta! ☹️
Thinking of removing the electric brake on mine but worried about warranty implications.
Please let me know if you have a solution to the tracking adjustment issue?
Thanks!
Mark.
