I assume it would, but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer yet.

I have a Jet 12", just wondering if this would be an upgrade:

I don't bandsaw much, but a little more capacity would be nice once in a while.

Comments/opinions welcomed.

Thanks

Yes, it is a 14”. Rockwell and Delta have a long history together. I had a Rockwell Model 14 that I liked very much, I wish I would have kept it when I bought my MM16.

Only you can know if it is worth the upgrade but that is an excellent price. I sold mine for $400.

For that price, jump on it quick. Like, right now. I bought a Delta USA model for $400. Wish I could have found that Rockwell at the time.
It will take a Delta riser.

That's a 14". Even being from the "peace sign" era and with a junky motor it's a decent price.

I'd be moving on it pretty darn quick. Find someone wanting to start and give them the jet at a good price.
