I'll probably get my Laguna bandsaw in a week or two. Looks like 10% off is all they're doing this year on black Friday,( i think it might come with the rolling stand though. Not sure)
FINALLY!!! Last day of the black Friday sale at Woodcraft... looks like 10% off is all they'll do on the 14bx 220v. (This is the first time I've seen any discount on the BX model) On line sale says $99 shipping so i called the store and payed them and it will ship toll free to the store and I'll pick it up there...will include a "free" blade. Only thing is...Laguna is backordered till late January. But I've been waiting almost a year, so another 2 months is no big deal. $149 off
Can someone explain the point of a bandsaw? When I look at an Adirondack chair, I think I could make most cuts with a chop saw, table saw or jig saw. But, it seems like the band saw would have smoother corners than a jig saw, is that it? Better control for following curved patterns?
