Craftsman Band Saw Model 29xxx

Price?? Almost anything is worth buying at the right price! What is yor intended use? I have a Craftsman 12" bandsaw, the one with an aluminum frame. Works great for what I need. Will it re-saw 6" oak? No way! Greg

Update: It looked very similar to the 113.248xxx series also. But this one's only 1hp and I don't think it's electronic.

Oh my God...it's a tilt head saw. I'm having second thoughts. Any opinions on tilt head band saws?

if it's the cheezy one with the ribbed aluminum table it's too lightweight to do any real work on. the frame warps if you look at it funny and the tilt mechanism has so much flex in it that depending what you are cutting and the feed rate used you're going to get different angles. I know a guy who had one. every time I talked to him about it he would end up telling me how much he regretted getting rid of his 18" Walker Turner. Bridger

I think I'm giving it a pass. The tilt head seems like a badly executed idea.
