I relocated last year for a great new job. Part of the move included a much larger shop, with 3 phase power. I bought this guy right before I moved.

I found this guy shortly after I got here and couldn't pass it up.

Then last Sunday my buddy called and told me about this one. I've always wanted one. The thought is I can restore it and use it for whatever resawing I decide to do. It is all there. 220v 1.5 HP motor. Two of the covers are a little tweaked. I think they will straighten fine.

The Delta got me looking a little further out on CL. That led to me driving 300 miles round trip to pick this guy up. It's a Lockformer Bett-Marr 14SM metal cutting bandsaw. It is extremely heavy. The main casting is incredible. In good working condition.

While I was driving home I got a call about another bandsaw I had inquired on. We struck a deal and I left on another 300 mile round trip to pick up this guy. It is in excellent condition with very little use. I'm off to get it unloaded now.
