I've been considering a new band saw myself but I spent an hour this past weekend cleaning, adjusting, and oiling the bearings on my old (50+ year) 14" Delta and she's singing a new tune. I'll probably just keep her for now.

I have a Shop Fox table top jointer that I really like.

Really nice, mine is like Hatric's probably 50+ year old Delta Milwaukee but it still works well.

Nice looking machine. Looking forward to your review of it and some future projects you use it to cut.

Cory, I just ordered a Grizzly. Maybe we can get together sometime and give a comparison to folks.

heartlandbowyer · « **Reply #17 on:** February 15, 2013, 01:38:00 PM »

Al, sounds like a plan. I'm gonna give mine a workout this weekend. Got decent piece of bocote when I picked up the saw so I'm chompin at the bit to get it cut up.

Congrats! Looks like a really nice band saw. Did you get a few good 1/2 inch blades too?

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #19 on:** February 15, 2013, 04:04:00 PM »

Thanks a lot Cory, ya just cost me $190.00 for a set of Carter Roller Guides for my saw. Always wanted a set and when I seen your saw, that pushed me over the dam. Least ya could do is offer to pay half for me. LOL
