Low End Band Saws
I'm looking at doing a project which will require some accurate cuts in 50x50x3mm RHS at 45 and 22.5 degrees.
As much as I would love a swivel head machine, I'm a pensioner and those machines are just beyond my budget.
I have my eye on the basic B002 machine from Hare & Forbes, the vertical capability also appeals to me.
Has anyone got this machine, I know you get what you pay for but it is capable of doing what I need.
Also, is it worth getting a jug of cutting fluid and wetting the blade with a squirt bottle - I plan on babying the machine anyway, slow speed and easy cuts.
Cheers
Smidsy
