Good Morning Folks! I have the opportunity to purchase one of these Northfield 20" bandsaws and was wondering if anyone here had any experience with this saw. The available saw has a 1 hp 3 phase motor which I would likely power with a VFD. I'm just wondering if a 1 hp 3 phase had enough power to handle a big cut. This would be my first foray into the world of 3 phase machines.
Apparently this saw needs a little work as well so I need to really evaluate carefully!
Thanks in advance! Jeff
