Rob Roy Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Happy New Bandsaw Merlin. Looks like a nice piece of kit. Now it's time to get it covered in sawdust. You'll be cutting all sorts of stuff now. Enjoy it. Rob Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobscroll Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Nice addition to your workshop Merlin! Good on you! Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Looks like a nice one. I rarely use my band saw because I HATE to have to change blades on it and of course the one I need for the current project is never the one on it. I used it a lot when I was into pen making and other lathe work. Also when I made toys. Not so much for the type scrolling I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Merlin, congrats on getting the new bandsaw, owning it should makes things easier. Be cautious when using it, they are a lot more viscous than a scroll saw. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Thanks for looking people...........I'll be using it mainly for re-sawing recycled boards to us in scrolling........ Roly thanks for that bit of info..yes I believe it is the same yours has a better mitre fence than mine and the PDF instructions are better and that video is extremely helpful, will be putting that on my e reader to take to the workshop................. ***Merlin*** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgman Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 You must of been real good last year Merlin! So, how does it run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneMahler Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Happy for you Merlin. I use mine a lot for all kinds of different things. Hoping you receive many years and joy with the new toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Always nice to get a new tool in the shop. Now you can take on some new things. I would not like it if I did not have my band saw or my planer. Next to my scroll saw these are two of my most used tools I just do not like my table saw a lot. It seems like a dangerous item to me and I only use it when I absolutely have to. Great looking saw. Full of great features. Out shines the one I have but I still enjoy having it in my shop Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
