Default Rigid band saw

Thanks a lot for the input. Sounds like I will use the Grizzly riser.

I'm looking at the Rigid band saw at H.D. Anyone had any expeiance with
it? I can't find a riser block for it. Anyone know if one is made for
it? The saw is here. Hope the link works, it's pretty long.

Ridgids part number for the riser is AC5005. When you try to order, it
wont add to the cart. I've heard it's pricey so people have been using
substitutes like the Grizzly.

This place has it listed for $133:

And these guys list it for $130:

Do a Google search for "Ridgid AC5005".

And one more interesting link. These guys seem to find them at their
local HD for $60.
