I have just purchased a Rigid 14" band saw. I intend to use the saw
for resawing 6" stock, btoh from precut lumber and from timbers. I
plan to use tha saw as is, with no after factory upgrades. I was
wondering if someone who has used this saw could recommend the best
resawing jig.


I have the best results with a simple, shop built rounded post.

You can adjust for drift as you feed the stock, and it's cheap and
easy to make. Check out the AW link you posted. Look at the
half-round piece next to the blade. That's really all you need, along
with some support behind it.
