Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I figured since resawing was the secondary use for me that I'd go with the taller one. Thanks again for your help. The amount of content you've posted here about bandsaws...

Man, who knew I was so wishy-washy...
Last night I had everything int my cart and was about to click 'buy' and started having second thoughts. After chewing on it for a day, I ended up ordering...
Don't blame me, blame Woodcraft! I plan to order the Laguna this weekend. Turns out I'll have to swap out the outlet on the circuit I plan to use since it's currently wired for a 6-15 plug though...
Thanks for the reply. This echos what I was assuming but I just wanted to check myself. Funny how you can mentally committed to something and you get attached to going that route. (I had decided on...
My apologies for yet another newbie bandsaw question. I haven't posted here in years, I mainly lurk and find what I need using search but I still haven't seen much on the Grizzly G0817. After years...
Thanks for the replys. Reid Supply is definitely one to bookmark. Ray, the link you provided gave me the part name that I need... "threaded bushing".
I think I know what to do to cobble together a...
I'm working on an odd little project and I'd like to implement something like a vice. Basically a fixed handwheel that moves a threaded rod in and out. The end of the rod opposite the hand wheel...
Without knowing how you work and the sorts of projects you work on...
I really like using a track saw to break down sheet goods to manageable pieces. I work on saw horses and still have to move...
Yup, should be no problem. Here's an old post of mine on the subject:

Yup, I saw the same thing yesterday. I've been on the fence about getting a G055P bandsaw. The price just went from $425 to $495... up over 16% like you mentioned. Ugh. This was enough to nudge me...
In my limited use so far I have not noticed any problems, though I do plan on installing vents on the opposite wall to provide makeup air. (For those times when I work with the garage door closed)
Not anymore. ;-)
I'm definitely curious about the performance of the larger DD, it would be a disappointment if it adds more resistance than the separator does. That flex hose does have to go. I'm in the process of...
You're certainly right, the dust that settles around the garage isn't necessarily due to the filter or the DC. This is just the first step in trying to improve overall dust collection. I agree that I...
My "shop" is in my garage which is also used for other things like parking a car and storage. I have a Delta 50-760 with the standard bags, and have been unhappy with the amount of fine dust that...
I know there has been recent mention of this in various places, but this is the first visual I've seen of this saw. I did a search and didn't see anything on this site yet, so I apologize if this is...
Ha! I should have noticed. I was so focused on the width of the table that I didn't even notice the distorted vac and rail. Thanks.
Nice floor. What's the story of that large MFT?
Funny you should ask... My "shop" is in my garage which was unpainted drywall. Just this weekend I painted the wall that is my primary work area and I am thrilled with the difference. (My wife is a...
I just look for the screw pops and go from there... :)
I'm thinking of going, but I've never been to a WW show. This seems pretty small to me, any insight on what I can expect if I do end up going?
Thanks!
Excellent. With the exception of the Wilkinson "tune-o-matic" (which I'm not familiar with), this is exactly how I would spec the bridge setup if I were getting/building a custom guitar. I know...
Mark, I think I hate you. Your skills and collection of guitars are getting the best of me. This one is turning out beautifully. I've always loved PRS bodies, but I've never liked the 25" scale. So...
In my opinion, a track saw definitely does not replace a tablesaw. However I think you can get very good results with a track saw and a small contractor saw.
I think track saws excel at:

Here's yet another example of mounting a DD to a Festool vac. I considered several other routes, but settled on this one because it was quick and easy.
The DD for Festool is really nice but too...
