Delta is considered better than average. I found my 14" Delta to be
excellent and well-built. Nothing replaces a good chain saw for his
application.

One of our sons asked me this question:

Got any info on how to choose a good band saw, wondering what rpm, blade,
size would be good for ripping oak branches up to 4" in diameter?

He makes rustic furniture from oak branches he recycles when he sees a tree
being cut down. I DAGS but wasn't able to sort through everything to get
him a succinct answer.

Thanks.
