Hi Guys
My turn to make a happy report.
For about a month I had been watching this band saw on craigslist but the price was a bit higher than I wanted to pay, even though I thought it might be fair. By chance I happened to check on Saturday and saw that the price was reduced significantly and in the ballpark of what I thought I could pay.
I called the seller and ended up going over Sunday to check it out and he agreed to sell it to me for $900. I think this is a very favorable price but it was also the price that I thought I could afford when I saw it listed initially. It came with a like new fence sold by woodcraft for $149, and a custom-made mobile base that works pretty well and only holds the saw about an inch higher than if it were sitting on the floor. Plus a bonus of 36 spare blades that look to be in either new or very good condition. And six other blades that seem to be the size that will fit my smaller 18 inch Grizzly light duty saw that I bought about 30 years ago.

It has a 3 hp motor and about 13 inches resaw capacity.
