Reliant bandsaw
« on: July 15, 2014, 08:05:00 AM »
Anyone have any experience with Reliant bandsaws?

There is a 14" saw on my local Craigslist for a good price, just wondering if it's worth buying.

No experience.. but I read some online  reviews a few years back when I was looking for a band saw. Google search "Reliant Band Saw", there are reviews online. I ended up finding a like new Grizzly 1073 band saw on Craigslist.

Checked out a few of those reviews and I think I'll pass. They compared it to a Central Machine
bandsaw (Harbor Freight).

The Grizzly ultimate saw has fantastic reviews. I have a couple of them and they do a good job. Not what I use for cutting veneers, but great on cutting limbs or risers.
