and part of it has arrived....
On the Jan 31 I ordered a G0513x2f (17" band saw) from Grizzly, some blades and a mobile base. It shipped on Feb 7. When I came home from work 9th, the blades and base had arrived. A check w/ UPS Freight indicates the saw will be delivered next Tues.
I've been waiting on this for a long time - it's going to be a monsterously huge step up from the table top saw I've had for years. I had sold a week of vac time to get it - was looking at getting a drill press as well - but SWMBO decided we needed to pay down on the mortgage - so the other 3 weeks I forecasted to sell will be going towards the house. Might be able to swing a drill press yet, but will have to scale it down a bit for that to happen....
SMC protocols being what they are - i know - no pics, it didn't happen, etc, - so here is a pic of what has happened - more to follow.
