FWIW about 8 years ago I bought a Laguna LT16HD. I bought a 18"
Rikon to replace a small Craftsman. I kept the Rikon about a week
and returned it. It more closely performed like the Craftsman
compared to the Laguna. I love the Laguna, it stays set and very
little tweaking needs to be done with blade size changes. And it
tracks perfectly.


the videos I saw it looked like you could make veneer on the laguna

I never heard of laguna when I bought jet stuff

my impression of laguna is that they don't just copy things from other
manufacturers they rethink the design and it seems to be a succesful
strategy

btw lagauna are moving and having a huge sale that I can't participate
in but others might be able to if in So. Calif.
