Leon, I've got the 14" Rikon with 13" resaw. It runs on 110 and I've
resawn 10"-12" logs on it with no problems. Since it's two speed, I did
put it on the lower speed to "shift down" so to speak but I didn't test
to see if that was really necessary.



Are those green logs? Are you resawing to get veneers? Do you do a lot
of this type resawing? Hardwoods?

No doubt you are having success with this but do you think you are
getting the same results and speed as with a larger more powerful saw?

Basically the OP is asking for at least 10" resaw capacity and we do not
know what he expects from there and he is looking at a wide range of
saws. If he is going to use his BS as the typical woodworker does I'm
sure most all that he is looking at will suffice. If he wants to mostly
cut veneers that wide he should be looking at a more robust group of saws.
