Title: Another new toy has arrived
Post by: davejo90 on November 05, 2020, 04:11:03 pm

Hi All,

The bandsaw has now arrived and I have to say it's a lovely bi of kit, nice and quiet and it feels very sturdy too.

Just got to do the German to English translation of the cutting speeds for different types of materials to cut

Hello Dave
I have had mine for 4-5 years now, possibly a bit more, and think it is brilliant. Axminster are good for replacement blades and they also do a metal cutting blade which I found very useful when cutting up lead flashing. Enjoy it!
John

Hi John,

I bought spare blades at the same time. One was for steel & brass and the other was a spare for the one they supplied with it.
