Band saw
« on: October 18, 2020, 04:17:39 PM »
Can anyone recommend a decent bench top band saw?

There's plenty on Amazon and eBay around similar prices but was wondering if anyone has one. Will only have light use.

Cheers in advance   :)

 Hi Gav Because the bearings packed up on my small bench Bandsaw which I have had 20 Years I purchased a new on from Axminster Power Tools and I am happy with it I have had it about 9 Months now and I find it great and remember with Axminster you get a 3 Year Warranty and Free delivery and if it is in stock it is usually next day delivery and their after sales service is great

                                                          Regards John

 Hi Gav I see you live in Pontefract it is a shame the Harrogate show is cancelled in November you could have browsed through all of the manufacturers Bandsaws there may be an Axminster Store near you.
