 Bandsaw. I finally got around to using my "new to me" but old bandsaw. Works just great. Has a hook tooth 1/4" blade on it (probably original) that cuts exactly on line. It weighs about 200 lbs. All cast iron and steel, no plastic. Took two of us quite awhile to get it into the shop on a dolly. I adjusted it a bit and didn't have time to use it until this evening. Compared to my hundred dollar Delta and my old Craftsman, it cuts like a dream come true. It's a Taiwan made Craftmaster 14". Anyone ever heard of it? Made in 1987, so the tag on it says. Sure beats any bandsaw I've ever used so far.

| Re: Bandsaw. I don't know about your bandsaw, but my Wife was made in Taiwan in 1942 and she beat any bandsaw I've ever used.
