Not familiar with that saw, looks like a generic import to me. Did you look at
the Wilton w/m bandsaws? It's cheaper than yours at $999 free shipping:

I'm looking for a small vertical metal bandsaw. The 4x6" cheapies won't
work for thick sheets (say 1/4" aluminum 12" x 12") and I already have
a saw to cut bar stock. The cheapest thing I can find is this:

It's $1200 on Amazon (shipping included). It's a lot less than the
cheapest Grizzly vertical metal saw (G8144 $2025 w. shipping) and I
don't plan on using it for wood. It seems like somebody should be
selling a 14" saw for metal that would be maybe a $100 more than the
wood saws, but I can't find anything like that. I want to cut up to
maybe 3/4" aluminum plates and maybe some steel. I have 2 questions:
Are there cheaper option for what I want?
Is this saw up to the task? (since wood/metal combo saws often are not
well regarded)
