Robust and solid
The 14-15 inch bandsaws for DIY stuff are nice but I could not wait to get a solid no compromise bandsaw for resaw work, bowl blanks, and larger furniture builds. This pm1800 is as solid as they come with nearly 900 lbs which keeps this machine steady with no vibration and super accurate. I can see why all of my colleagues in serious woodworking settings purchase this or larger. I’ve looked at Laguna etc but when people say their customer service is bad listen…I’ve been a victim. This 5hp motor sails through all hardwood and the fit and finish could not be better. You’re paying a higher price for the powermatic name and customer service quality and it’s definitely worth it.
