Is anybody familiar with the Powr-Kraft bandsaws made by montgomery wards in the 1950's? I have the opportunity to pick one up for about $150 maybe less. I currently have a 12" craftsman that I really need to get rid of. I know that 14" deltas and the like come up on CL fairly common but they are usually twice what this thing is. One of the upsides to it is that it has 8" resaw capacity, almost 3" more than my craftsman. Has anybody used them? If you have, do they vibrate much? That is the main reason I want to get rid of my craftsman, turn it on and you can almost watch it run out the door which affects my cuts. I have enclosed a picture of the saw for sale. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Rusty
P.S. I have this posted over at owwm as I know that they are more familiar with old machinery, just wanted to increase my opinion base.
