Hi All
Its time to add a bandsaw to my workshop. I'm choosing to go with the 2 in the subject line for thier versatility (joint cutting, curve cutting, resaw capability).
I don't have 220v in the shop right now, but it appears both will run on 20A 110 circuit so I think I'm good there. I'd love to here from owners, as I beleive both machines are well regarded.....but does one trump the other in any feature? I did notice that the G0513 has 2 dust ports while the Rikon may only have 1??
Any info on these machines would be greatly appreciatted.
Lastly, this is going into my basement workshop (down a flight of stairs with 1 landing and a turn). They weigh in close to 300lbs.....please give me insight as to how each machine could be broken down to smaller parts to easy its transport down the stairs.....this may actually be my deciding factor
TIA
George
