Default Bandsaw question.


Sorry, but it's silly question time!

I'm puzzled by Americans' references to their bandsaws as 14-inch, 16-inch etc.
My bandsaw has a 1400mm blade (about 55 inches) and max throat height is
80 mm (just over 3 inches), so what is the 14 inches referring to?
I checked the spec of the "Delta 28-248 14inch" but can see no 14inch measurement.
