Bandsaw

Anyone use this saw or a comparable product?

I work at a small east coast boat yard & our band saw while great in it's
day
has struggled with big heavy jobs. It's fine for most operations but
resawing
10" teak really pushes it beyond belief. This saw looks perfect for what we
need.
Any opinions?

thanks,

Bill

For this operation it is laminated coamings on a fiberglass daysailer.

Ye gads, I wonder why?

How long does a good resaw blade last?

Just curious, are you building wooden boats or is the for trim on
glass boats.
