I posted earlier about how great General bandsaws are and how they were made in Canada. I have not seen new tools in the last 10 or more years and was greatly surprised at the new General bandsaw. I actually just bought a General 18 inch. I saw an ad in the newspaper and went to see it. I was shocked. Plastic handles, small die cast trunions etc etc. I put it through it's paces and the saw worked perfectly. I bought it for $650 with 10 new blades. While I am sure it will work perfectly, it is a far cry from the 15 and 20 inch we still have in our shop. Max
