Littlemachineshop Bench Top Band Saw - Anyone Have Experience

The 4x6 is not just a horizontal saw. It works as a vertical saw as well, though with a small table and you have to sit down on the saw frame to use it effectively. The 4x6bandsaw Yahoo group also has a bunch of upgrades for vertical usage as well, along with vise mods, hydraulic downfeed additions, work stops, and all sorts of others things you can do to improve them. All the mods are pretty cheap to do, just takes some effort, and the price of admission for the saw itself is cheap enough to allow for that. Really, unless I was contemplating regularly cutting stock bigger than the 4x6 can hold, I can see no reason to get anything else other than too much money in your pocket or vanity. My little 4x6 makes nice square cuts quickly and effortlessly, after a bit of making friends with it...
