Hi all,
I was just offered a Bridgewood 36"? bandsaw in excellent condition from a man brokering out a bunch of equipment from a log home builder that closed a couple years ago. (They simply closed their doors due to a serious cash flow problem I heard. I'm told they closed just before they would have had to file bankruptcy).
Whatever the case, there is supposed to be a pile of various equipment for sale, I can hardly wait to see what they have!
I'll give a full report of the goodies when I come back from my visit there.
At any rate, in the course of conversation, this guy said there was a like new 10 year old, hardly used, Bridgewood 36"? bandsaw for sale there.
If it is that big and in really good condition, any guesses on it's worth? I've never owned any of this brand, so I'm in unfamiliar territory. I want to make a serious offer because I could really use a saw like this.
The brand new Bridgewood 37" models from Italy seem to be for sale for somewhere in the $ 5700 range.
I need the big throat, not any resaw capability. I work with panels mostly.
Any guesses are welcome.
James
