    i am still using(abusing) an old 14" "pentagon" (chiwanese??) i bought s/hand about 17 years ago and it is still going. i have replaced the old table with a larger version, beefed up the tracking adjustment and added my own riser system to increase the cut to nearly 8". definitely my favorite tool in the shed.
    everything is something, for a reason:confused:

    Thanks for all your great help everyone. I bought a JET 14" bandsaw in the end (non deluxe version). $625.00 from GPW who was at the Canberra Working With Wood Show this weekend. I also got the JET fence for it too.

    Still in the boxes at the moment as I want to read a book I have on order before setting it up and loosing a digit. If I don't assemble it I won't be tempted

    I'm sure you'll find plenty of use for it, regardless of brand.

    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Nah, I'm also buggered from a weekend at Bombala for a bike rally. Too tired to even contemplate putting my fingers near a new flesh gnashing machine...
