As posted before (and obviously nobody knew of anything there to help me, so...), I have a buddy who just got several 10"x10"x42" (those are real dimensions) pieces of what I think are black walnut. We want to cut concave shapes into these pieces using a bandsaw. So, I sold some stuff on craigslist and we're now in the market for a used bandsaw. What would cut this without a problem?
So far, a Jet 16" bandsaw ($600), an S45 ($1000 - seems a bit high, no extras - would need a mobile base), an old Sears Craftsman (Parks?) 18" ($495), and a "butcher boy" meat band saw ($500) are within the general price range. Any thoughts? The other possibilities are getting a new G0513 or? Advice needed.
Thanks in advance.
