I had the Delta Shopmaster version of this saw for many years. I used it to cut many a bandsaw box design out and Lso to slice wood. I upgraded to a Fullsize Craftsman Bandsaw many years ago. You will get better and learn more techniques as you use it. ThNk younfor sharing. Everyone stay safe, warm, happy and y. From Henrico County y
In Asia market, this product uses the brand stanley especially on Indonesia, but for specification of the unit is very similar. They just different color of the body. So Craftsman is still the diversification product from the group of Black+Decker. Thank you for the video, Jenny 👌🏼😁
Another thorough review Jen! Covered all the important parts, and a great demo! Doesnt seem like a bad "workshop" size for general/occasional use. I think it will serve you and your projects well! Thanks as always Jen 😊👍
Thanks so much, Brad! This is definitely a nice starter bandsaw and would be just fine for a lot of beginners. If I see I'm using it all the time, I might upgrade to a full standing model.
The Grizzly model is probably pretty comparable, this one will come in handy. It already made cuts I struggled to complete within the past month using my other saws.
I've had the same one for a while now. I know there are better ones out there but this one suits me well. I, like you, wish it would have come with a fence. I'm not a fan of the tabbed miter slots either but I digress. The biggest thing I did that was a noticeable improvement was getting a few new blades of various dimensions.
Re: someone unsubbing from you a day or so ago, I just deleted cookies from my computer to speed it up. That signed me out of youtube and my google account. When I tried to sign back in it created a new account for me and ALL my subscriptions were gone. So it may look like you lost one sub and gained another.
