I have a craftsman 119.224010 14 inch bandsaw, it was free, so the price was right.
When I started it up it starts very slow. Like 30 seconds to full speed. (My older blue jet 14 starts up almost instantly, same electrical plugin.) It also doesn't seem to cut well (may be blade I have a new haven't had a chance to try it out)
My question is, why does it take so long to spin up, is that normal or is there something wrong?
Is it worth keeping, my shop space is limited. About 15x27 and there are a lot of other tools in there.
Should this be a decent saw, so I can have a smaller blade on it an a bigger one on jet? Or is it just junky?
