The October 2004 and November 2004 issues of "American Woodworker" magazine
have a good review of bandsaws. Lots of good info on key features,
convenience of use, performance, etc. They review about 30 models and do a
lot
of evaluating. I got a lot from reading it. You can order reprints of the
articles from their web site www.americanwoodworker.com.

I'm wanting to buy a Bandsaw and only want to spend about $500 +
accessories.
I've looked at the Jet & Delta 14" models with open stands and like both,
but I don't really know what I'm looking at.
(I like the Jet the best)
I read the stuff over at Woodcraft about setting one up properly.
So my question is, what features should I be looking at to make a
determination on what to buy?
I'm pretty much a long term novice at this stuff and my interest is in
making lawn furniture and miscellaneous woodworking, home repair and hobby
projects.
Thanks.
