Comments:

this is another flea market find.Within three days of buying this bandsaw,I was using it to cut pine wainscotting for three hours straight.I then spent a week removing an unbelievable amount of rust and replacing the dry rotted rubber.I believe the motor is original,and the person who bought it in the first place opted for the stand and the worklight.I have thought about upgrading to the 14" band saw, but I can't forget how well this thing ran on rotted tires and rusty bearings.Small,but mighty.
