New in box Delta BS 14" (3/4 HP) from Lowes, $150. Achieved following in the footsteps of a friend via a "talkative" price match. I'm not really gloating, I'm just REALLY HAPPY about it! : ) When my dad and I used to go fishing, we used to joke that we always heard, "You should have been here last week...". This is pleasantly different than that. Best, Bill |

The Laguna ResawKing blade is sold by the inch, for 1-1/4" blades the price was $1.25 per inch and I use 150" blades... It is a great blade....as well it should be. But a NEW Delta 14" BS for $150, that is a great deal. |

But a NEW Delta 14" BS for $150, that is a great deal. (As you may know) Lowes is in the process of switching out their Delta tools to PC tools, which is related to how I got a clearance price. I tried to get even a "decent deal" on the Delta 16.5" DP (regular price is $379) but my local Lowes won't budge yet (I needed to drive to a different city to get the BS for $150). Anyone familiar with the quality of that DP? To me, the brand "Delta" represents a pretty level of quality which probably exceeds my needs as a hobbyist, but it may be a bit naive of me to think that way. Best, Bill |
