It would be lovely if they made one big bandsaw design with a
car-style 4-speed transmission, then you just shift it to the right
speed range and put on the right band. If it's heavy and rigid
enough for steel, wood would be cake.

I had two 14" Walker-Turner vertical bandsaws in the model shop at
Mitre with that feature, though both were stuck in the wood range and
I had no budget for repairs.
