    Bogging wide belt sander

    James,

    Bill @ Grizzly

    In discussing bandsaw blade tension, a few key points to remember are:
    1. Blade tension is a function of the blade width and thickness; the wider

  15. further explanation

    Dave, you are wrong.

    Nowhere does it say you are responsible for shipping on warranty returns. You are reading things into it that simply are not there. Further, non-warranty returns are SUBJECT...
  16. Anybody know the warranty period on Grizzly

    To clarify the return policy, it should be remembered most of our business is done "mail order". Meaning we have no idea how the machine was used or taken care of until seeing it. For example, if you...
