Everybody, say hello to Papa Griggio

[John Sanford]

Papa Griggio has been adopted into my workshop family. He's a strapping big fella from Northern Italy. Wtih 24" wheels, he's got a resaw capacity of @16" inches. I've cleaned him up, and after doing a little adapter cord magic, hope to have him in service by next weekend. Papa went to the Carter School of Blade Guiding

Oh, Papa set me back about $900.

Nice! And that certainly deserves a 'you suck!'

[Bruce Page]

And his middle name is SNAC as in anything that you feed him!
Congrats!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Nice purchase! May it serve you well!

Feed Papa with care!

That is the heavy ACM series. Are the wheels solid? Dave

No, they're spoked. I think the difference between the X00 and X40 series is the latter have a stouter motor, possibly stouter frame as well, and footbrake, so the extra inertial mass of the solid wheels isn't needed.

Very nice saw ..

[Shawn Pixley]

Now that's a saw!

[Keith Outten]

You just can't beat the performance of a really big band saw. I went though several smaller saws before I learned my lesson.
That's a real beauty John, congratulations.

[Mike Cutler]

$900.00 bucks!!!! You should be ashamed of yourself for stealing that bandsaw like that.;)

Seriously now, that's a nice saw. Congrat's.

My ceiling isn't that tall or I would have gotten one too. Yahhhh. Have fun with that one. Bet you have a smile on your face every time you walk into the shop.
