I need a new 14” bandsaw for cutting bowl blanks and a i was looking for one with a larger depth of cut in the $1k range.
I’ve narrowed it down to the Rikon 10-324TG for about $975+ tax with free shipping or the Jet 14” Deluxe for $989 + tax from Rockler with the 10% off sale they’re advertising ( if they don’t jack the price up during the sale period) from 1/17-1/30.
The Rikon has a 1.5 hp motor with a 13” cutting height and the Jet has a 1.25hp motor and a 12” cutting height.
Thoughts on either?
