After a few years of holding off, I finally ordered a band saw. I've read, researched, looked at, read more and finally ordered a Laguna 14BX 2.5 hp (220 volt) machine. It's supposed to ship out tomorrow so I should have it in about a week. Next problem, getting issue - getting it down to my basement shop. I have a Laguna jointer and it's a great quality machine, so I hope the bandsaw holds up to the same standards.
