I go to pick up my Laguna LT14 SUV bandsaw tomorrow. WoodCraft had one all put together with the DriftMaster Fence, mobility stand and Resaw King blade on it. So I want even have to put it together, although I imagine she will need a little tuning.
The deal I worked got me the blade for free which is good since I am a little concerned about the 1" Resaw King on this saw despite a number of people including Wood Craft and Laguna swearing it is the best/most popular blade for the saw. I am wondering what other blades I should pick up? I should add I have a small Inca bandsaw that I plan to leave set up with a smaller blade for cutting curves. The Inca takes 1/2 " and smaller baldes. I have a good range of Woodslicer blades for it. Should I get something smaller for the SUV too. I am going to start out with the Laguna in my garage, at least until I get my shop rearranged and maybe indefinitely. It will be much easier to work larger pieces of wood in the garage than in the shop. The garage even has a better plastic floor, heat...I even have a 230 line run from the shop panel to the garage. The electric heater runs on 230.
