I want the 17 inch grizzly.I cant afford right now.Currently I dont have one.I sold my tabletop.
Im also looking at the 14" rikon.
My question is I just came across a Jet 14" closed stand 1hp without a riser block. Its was purchased in 98 or 99. Its has light use. He said something about the table was loose underneath so he created a block out of some material that bowling alleys use.
So its 9rs old. New ones are 489-550 He wants 300. I was thinking about offering him a bit less like 250.
Is this a good saw, being that old? Im aware the more HP the better for resawing.
Im also aware that I will have to sink a few hundred into it for riser block,blades and carter guides but at least not right away.
Thanks
