The least expensive way to get additional resaw capacity would be to purchase one of the Asian 14 inch cast iron saws and add a riser block. Set up this way, and with a good resaw blade installed, these saws can easily resaw to 12 inches with as little as a 1 HP motor. John White, Shop Manager, Fine Woodworking Magazine.

#1 General 490 bandsaw - was a deal then not so much. 10-31-2022, 02:48 PM Saw an ad for a General 490 bandsaw, $100. Communicated with the seller, told them I wanted it. Even arranged delivery. Then they told me they mis-priced it and it was actually $600. Yeah. too much for that saw. Last edited by DavidR8; 10-31-2022, 03:41 PM . Tags: None
