Does anyone have one of these or have any complaints praises of it? I may be buying one but I don't know anything about it... What is one worth in good running condition? Thx in advance to any responses

Jamie...nothing specific.

But, if I recall clearly, Enlon was one of several importers of Taiwanese clones in the late 1980s or early 1990s. I believe Enlon then became Star (or perhaps the other way around) which soon became defunct by the late 1990s along with other importers like AMT, Total Shop and Transpower.

The quality of import machines back then was hit and miss. Probably mostly miss. They offered good value but tinkering with the machine to get it to perform was common and sometimes frustrating.

Thx I think I read about that same thing from Kent in an old post questioning the 16" version. I was wondering if anyone had this or has had this model specifically that could comment. I'm thinking it might be a good starter bandsaw but I'm not one for buying poor quality.
