Well guys im pretty sure I got a great deal on a bandsaw. I've been asking a lot of questions about bandsaws lately. Im so thankful for your replies to all my questions. My search for a larger bandsaw has come to a end. I'd found a minmax s45 for $1000 and the advice you gave me was to let it go at that price so I did🙂. I came across a older Delta 20" that had seen some outside neglect for $700. You advised I let it go so I did🙂. I put an ad in Craigslist asking if there was any body wanting to sell their larger bandsaw. Well someone in Chico CA messaged me this morning. He said he had a 15 year old Laguna LT 16 bandsaw that was made in Italy he wanted to sell. He sent me a pic of a new Laguna 16 bandsaw with a new price of $3750. I sent him a message back saying that he had a great saw but I couldn't afford it. Then I decided to give him a call. I only had $1000. I called him, he said he wanted$1200. I told him that I only had $1000 and that I'd try and get more money and call him back. He said he'd take $1000. Saw has only been used for about 10 hours. It's a Laguna LT 16 Star. 3 hp motor. Im currently sitting in my mini van with a bandsaw that's worth 3 times what my vans worth. okay guys did I get a good deal. I feel good.😃
