I have a 14inch hare and forbes bandsaw. I think its one of the older Taiwanese models. It's actually a very accurate machine with a very nice setup, so I'd like to keep it but just want to be able to resaw thicker timbers. Can I replace the existing 3/4 horsepower motor with a 1 horsepower motor - or maybe even a 1.5 horsepower motor ? There is no riser.
cheers
