Hey all,
I was watching PBS last week, airing old NYW episodes and saw him using what looked to be a dedicated resaw. Had about a three inch wide blade but relatively small throat. I would find a small dedicated resaw very handy in our shop as opposed to buying a big saw and setting it up dedicated (MM, Rikon, etc.)
The unit was green so I guessed it was a grizzly but nothing turns up there. I am wondering if the bigger saws now have such a resaw capacity that the unit on that old show is no longer available.
We have a small portable band mill and I have done some resawing on it but its not very convenient. I have often thought of keeping an eye out for a small used bandmill with no motor and setting it up electric in the shop. Would be handy as he!!.
Thought someone may have some info, thanks,
Mark
