I've had a Laguna 14/12 for about 5 years, like the saw, but it feels under powered when trying to resaw anything over 4". I have the 3/4" Resaw King blade, on my second one after the original snapped a week after being sharpened. So I don't think an alternate blade will offer me a better approach, but I'm open to suggestions.
I'm leaning towards the Grizzly G0531B 21" 5HP 240V/Singe Phase. Delivered, it's around $3300.
It has a motor brake and not a foot brake.
I can spend more, but I'm not sure how much of a better saw I would get, but also open to suggestions.
I scan local Ads and FB, but really see anything used that perks my interest.
Thanks
