I have a 7.5 hp 36" Tannewitz vertical band saw that we don't use much

5/4 hardwood like butter.

Could I put a VFD on it to cut metal?

Sure someone in your area doesnt have a 36" metal cutter they might
want to trade?

Used machines are too plentiful around here. I did sell my other 36"
bandsaw, it was a "Northern", both are great iron! The footprint is
small enough to just keep for wood odds and ends. I have an 18"
vertical metal saw with a welder, so I don't NEED another.
