good saw mediocre stand October 11, 2009 B. Stenman For what it does and the price it is a good value. Important to keep it maintained with periodic lubrication or it will seize and the blades is likely to break. Good idea to get at least one extra blade as they break without warning and long before the teeth are worn down. The cut-off switch works well so you can start it cutting and walk away to do something else.
For almost any length of stock you will need a separate support for it. Unfortunately the height of the cutting bed is lower than any roller stand I have found so I ended up putting the bandsaw on a couple pieces of OSB to raise it a couple of inches.
The stand is barely able to support the weight of the cast iron saw and is the real weak point of the bandsaw. A stronger and taller stand would be nice and it will be one my next projects. The stand that comes with the bandsaw is barely strong enough to support the wheels as the bandsaw is wheeled into position.
Jet 5 x 6 Horizontal/vertical bandsaw October 11, 2009 Lee Bevins (Boise, ID) Jet 414458 HVBS-56M 5-by-6-Inch 1/2 HP Horizontal/Vertical Bandsaw
First off, let me say Amazon handled the sale the best!! They know how!
THE JET BANDSAW. Went together easy. EVERYTHING FIT, right on.
IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM, PERFECT. I recommend it!
Great product August 30, 2009 TonyNY (NJ) This saw has cut anything I have thrown at it so far. It assembled quick and easy, and moves around the floor nicely. It is a great tool for the price.
jet you bet!! April 8, 2009 MOOSH I LOVE THE BANDSAW,BUT THE BLADES DON,T LAST VERY LONG AND AT 11.00 EACH(FOR THE CHEAPER ONES) IT CAN BE A BIT EXPENSIVE. SOMEONE DIRECT ME TO SOME GOOD BLADES THAT WILL LAST MORE THAN 4 OR 5 CUTS! THANKS
Great saw March 27, 2009 P. Love Great saw. Was shipped well, and looks to be over very good quality, and is very sturdy. I had looked at some of the "cheaper" brands from Northern Tool, Craftsman and Harbor Freight, and got this one for just a little more than what those cost. This one has a slightly large capacity (5x6 instead of 4x6), and also had a bigger motor. The wheels are also useful.
Makes great cuts, very straight, and very easy. The only thing I don't like about it is the low level of blade adjustment (for smaller cuts you should be able to move in the guides further, although I haven't seen an adverse affect yet), and the casting on one of my guides looks a little bit off. It's still functional, and I may try milling it out, but it works fine for now.
