So I thought I had my mind made up for the LT18-3000 but I'm not sure if it's worth the extra 600$ over the 514x2.
Sorry to start another which one to buy post, but you guys come up with great points that I wouldn't think of and I will probably end up with a better machine for my needs.
Has anyone seen the Asian Lagunas and Griz side by side, better yet used them?
The notable differences for the Laguna are the Guides, One more HP and 3 1/4" more resaw.
I've never owed a bandsaw and this is making my decision more difficult
Here are examples of questions I'm asking myself:
-Given the same blade and a properly tuned machine will they perform equally for rip cuts and Resaw.
-Is one more frustrating to use than the other
And lots more like that....
Thanks again
