Alternative to Harbor Freight for 5x6 bandsaw
Just got a new MSC flyer and they have a 5x6" bandsaw that looks a lot
like the HF model that frequently goes on sale for $179 or so. They show the list price as $269.95 and the sale price is $199 for part number AM40051690. I haven't seen this (or the HF version) in person but I would expect the quality to be a little better from MSC (yeah, right :-)). Anyway, you can see it on their website, www.mscdirect.com - just put in 40051690 as an MSC part #. Just wanted to point this out for those who don't like dealing with HF. -- Regards, Carl Ijames carl.ijames at verizon.net |
