I have located a Ryobi BS-50N that appears to be in great condition. There was only one burb on the wrec sometime back about it being a good resaw bandsaw.
A local repair facility tells me I have a 2" wide blade capacity and the length is 72 7/16". The motor is 15 amps, it has a 7 inch cutting height. After that he could not tell much.
Any other users on this board of such a machine? I was looking for a machine to do resawing with, so I believe for the price it will be perfect.

It is an awesome machine for resaw. i love mine.
I agree. In Japan it's sold by Kyocera now but they still sell the same machine (BS-51). Last year I replaced the motor bearings. I bought mine new in 1995 and after a few mods I've been very happy with it.

Contact a bandsaw blade company. Most any can make a blade for you, if they don't have it in stock. Check Timberwolf.
I'm in Japan but I usually get my blades from the US. I've gotten 1/8~1" from
Do not get the the Woodmaster CT! These blades are too thick 0.035".
