Delta BS100 Shopmaster 9" Bench Top BandSaw

There's not much a band saw can't do--if you have one already, we bet you love it. It's an amazingly versatile tool and, quite honestly, offers the most fun in a shop. This Shopmaster model is a great first band saw for the home shop because it's powerful, compact, and has features you get on the big boys. This two-wheel band saw has the capacity to cut thick material with 3-3/4 inches of clearance under the blade guide and wheel. You've got 9 inches from frame to blade, and the ribbed aluminum table offers a miter gauge slot and a rack-and-pinion, table-tilt mechanism for precision adjustments from 3 degrees left to 45 degrees right. A 1-3/4-inch dust port will draw the chips and dust away from your sight line when connected to your shop vacuum or your dust collection system, and a flex-neck lamp that's right on the housing keeps everything in the light. We love this for its compact size--20 by 30 inches--and its light weight--just 33 pounds--so even the smallest shop
owner can have fun cutting curves.

Features:

* Powerful 1/3-horsepower ball bearing motor for smooth operation
* Flexible lamp illuminates table and workpiece
* Miter gauge slot for straight and angle cutting operations
* Rack and pinion upper blade guide adjustment for proper blade positioning
* Pre-drilled base holes for easy bench top mountin

Delta 28-276 3/4 HP 14" Professional Band Saw, Open Stand

Delta's 28-276 band saw is a smart buy for the serious hobbyist interested in curve cutting and light resawing. The 3/4-horsepower 120-volt motor delivers smooth, quiet, reliable power, while the saw's nine-spoke wheels deliver more accurate tension on the blade, greatly reducing vibration. The heavy cast-iron trunnions likewise minimize vibration to the blade. For curve cutting, the large 16-by-16-inch table provides excellent support for workpieces, and tilts to 45 degrees for bevel cuts. The saw handles stock up to 6-1/4 inches thick with a throat capacity (the distance from frame to blade) of 13-3/4 inches. The lower blade guide on this saw rests only 3/4 inch below the table, which significantly minimizes deflection in the blade, a big plus. When the saw is not in use, the tension-release lever extends the life of the blade. It also makes switching blades quick and easy. The saw comes equipped with a 4-inch dust port, a smart feature you won't find on many other band saws on the market today. Package includes 3/4-inch woodcutting blade and instruction manual.

Features:

* 3/4 horsepower induction motor provides cool, quiet power
* Quick-release tension lever
* 9 spoke computer balanced wheels eliminate vibration under load
* Blade moves at 3,000 surface feet per minute for efficient cutting
* 2 year limited warranty on machines, parts, and accessories

Delta 28-248 14" Band Saw with 1-1/2 HP Motor and Enclosed Stand

If you're shopping for a band saw, we don't have to tell you what an incredibly versatile tool it is to have in your shop. But we can tell you why this one is worth buying. Whether you'll use it mainly for resawing or for creative curved cuts, you'll appreciate everything from its rock-solid construction to its micrometer adjustment for ball bearing blade support and the blade guide blocks that assure absolute accuracy. The cast-iron table is a generous 16 by 16 inches and easily tilts 45 degrees right and 3 degrees left for bevel cuts. The max cut capacity is 6-1/4-inch thick, and even at that, with the 1-1/2 hp motor, you won't experience any bogging. Blade change, the least favorite job of band-saw owners, is really not so bad: There's a side take-out slot for the blade, and you won't even have to remove the rip fence guide rails when you're changing blades. We're impressed, too, with the Veri-Set quick-index tensioning system, designed to get you back to cutting wood and not fumbling with blade tension. We didn't hook up the press to a dust-collection system, so we can't vouch for how well the integral port pulls sawdust, but the rest of its features would make any woodworker happy.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Features:

* Powerful 1-1/2 HP, 115V guarded drip proof motor
* Micrometer adjustment for ball bearing blade support and blade guard blocks assure superior quality
* Full 16 inch by 16 inch cast iron table tilts 45 degree right and 9 degrees left for beveling operations
* capacity to cut up to 6-1/4 inch thick
* 4" integral dust port for efficient dust connection


Delta Industrial 28-682 18" Steel Frame Band Saw

The number one reason users look for large-diameter band saws is resaw capacity. The Delta 28-682 delivers 12" of resaw capacity. With a 240V true 2HP dual capacitor motor there is plenty of power to drive this band saw. The saw features a magnetic push button switch mounted on the frame for easy access and safe operation. Tensioning the blade is simple and easy with a large lever for tension adjustment. Releaving tension is even easier, with a simple flip of the lever, tension is quickly release. To retension the blade flip the lever back to its original position and you are ready for sawing. With a blade capacity of ½" to 1 ¼" and length of 136" resawing will be simple, easy and accurate. The large cast iron table has a ¾ X 3/8" miter gage T-slot, so you can use your standard miter gage from your table saw. Another differentiating point is the table locking system. The Delta has a 3-point locking system with a third steel plate trunion that is attached to the table and the frame insuring a solid lock at any beveled position from the cast iron table. In addition to secure locking table, the third steel plate trunion offers adjustable positive stops for consistent return to a pre-determined position. With a full 12" resaw capacity, there is the potential for a tremdous amount of dust. To deal with the dust the 28-682 comes with dual 4" dust ports; one located right in back of the guide bearings and the second at the bottom of the frame. The wheels have brushes to keep the polyeurathane tires clean and fully functional for the life of the saw. Rip fence is included in this unit.

Features:

* 2 HP, 230V, single 60 Hz., motor
* Quick tension release lever allows for quick blade changes
* Table extensions for full support towards frame
* 12" resaw capacity, roller guide bearings, table tilts 8 degrees left and 49 degrees right
* Includes two year limited warranty on parts and accessories
