Greenlee 1346 bandsaw

Saw this for sale and was wondering if any of you guys would recommend it. Can't find if its made in USA or not anywhere. It would surely be a step up from my CHICOM 4x6 I'm thinking

It's better than the imports if all you need is a horizontal. Stuff in doodah tends to be more expensive than Tulsa, okc, KC or just about anywhere because of aircraft. If it's in good shape and fits your needs I would say go for it. I wouldn't call it a steal but it seems like a fair, if slightly high, price to me. I'd offer to take a look at it but I'm in Canada now until Saturday night.

Adding, it's also 6x9 vs the inexpensive 4x6 that is more common. If I needed one and didn't have my 7x12, I would consider it. You won't be able to use it in vertical mode, which is one area the imports are nice.

Greenlee is a well respected name as far as I'm concerned

She may not be pretty but being greenlee it’s built very well. I’d probably jump on it after a test cut.

Thanks guys. Going to look at it this afternoon.

Well I got it. Overall I'm happy with it. Didn't come with the work support or handles but that's no biggie.
On unloading it though It fell and I bent the gearbox input shaft
Hopefully a straightforward repair.

If you end up needing to make a new one, I know a guy!

Well doesn’t that **** a huge set. But congrats anyhow and it wouldn’t surprise me if you can still source a replacement from greenlee.
