Debating if I should pull the trigger on a laguna bandsaw thats about 5 hours of driving for me to get. It's a 5hp, italian made model. Owner is sending me photos later. Sounds like an Lt 18 or 24 which is a large saw for a 2 car garage BUT I won't be in my current house forever, maybe another year or 2.
I was thinking about using tax refund on a festool domino 700 and ts75 track saw BUT this bandsaw popped up.
The table is 2x3' which is large.
Currently have a 14" jet that I don't really like. Belt tension is lacking among other things.
I would certainly have the laguna forever.
I'm debating if I should get it and deal with the space issue for now. It will fit height wise. I'll have to tilt it with several guys to get it in. Being able to resaw with accuracy and speed compared to my 14" is something I'd like.
That said.....we're having our first child in July so time in garage will be less. I'm wondering if a domino and tracksaw would be used more since there would be less setup time for projects....at least that's what I think.
Thanks in advance for the tips and info.
