Which bandsaw brand do you own (brands A through K)

[Frank Pellow]

This is the second poll about bandsaws.

See post #28 in this thread for the final combined result of the poll.

This time, the question is about the brand of wood-cutting bandsaw that you own. I need to list more brands than 10 and there is a limit of 10 options per poll, so this poll is in two parts. Please only vote in one of the two parts.

Please vote in this poll (brands A through K) if you own one of:

ACM
Agazzani
Bridgewood
Craftsman
Delta
General
General International
Grizzly
Jet
King

Please vote in the poll (brands L and above at http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=15760) for:

Laguna
Mini-Max
Performax
Powermatic
Rigid
Rikon
Ryobi
Wilke
Other
I don't own a bandsaw

If you own more than one bandsaw, please vote for the best of them.

Frank,

I have a 1957 20" Rockwell, but included it in the Delta category.

I also have a small import 4"x6" metal-cutting bandsaw, but I don't think you were really thinking of those.

That seems to be the closest brand

No I wasn't. I will go back and do some editing in order to make it clear that I am talking about wood-cutting bandsaws.

[Tony Falotico]

I have a Craftsman 12" tilt head. Was the first floor WW tool I ever bought; about 12 yrs ago. Thought I was in hog heaven ,

But now I hope to grow up someday and get a real bandsaw !

[Paul B. Cresti]

Agazzani B-24

Frank,
you are thinking way too much here

[Scott Coffelt]

Grizzly G0513, just love it.

[Dave Anderson NH]

I have a vintage 1988 Jet 18" bandsaw. Cast iron frame, 2hp motor, and an open stand. The old bugger just keeps on truckin' along and it's nice to have the 12"+ resaw capacity. Dust collection isn't very good though and I've yet to decide on a good option to improve it.

[Gary Sutherland]

I have an 18" Grob variable speed with blade welder, about 25 years old, and a 36" Tannewitz (a fun loving 2900 lbs), about 45 years old. Not what most would choose, I guess, and not super shiny new, but I love them both.

I voted Delta as it's the most common one I own. Currently in the shop are: Craftsman 12", Delta 14", Delta 14" wood/metal, Delta 20" wood/metal, Tannewitz 24". One of these days I'll get rid of a couple.......

Mine is the Jet Blue model, closed base. I like mine fine but I am just now getting into resawing some stuff. It was used moslty for curvy stuff until now. I am looking at getting a riser block for it.
