Ive been in the market for a good saw and came upon this deal from a member in one of my offroad clubs.

For those who dont know what it is, it is a horizontal Bandsaw.

Kalamazoo 610, The nice thing about this model is that most saws its size are only good for 5" or so stock to be cut in it. This has a throat big enough for 6"x10" material, which will come in handy. It is from the 80's so it is pretty old but its a beast and I didn't pay very much for it.

 

Beefy. Now put it to use :)

 

That is a unique size, Just think how much new blades for that thing are gonna be. Id say about 40-45 bucks

 

I can buy blades in bulk length and cut and weld my own.

 

Nice Buy!

I would love to have one similar to that myself

 

Nice saw..........new tools are great..

 

nice find. i have a bandsaw like the one next to it, and a upright. the horizontals are neat

 

Yea I have an upright also, I just dont use it very much. I would love to be able to afford the one in the backround, but I got this one cheap because Russ bought the one in the back and no longer needed the one I bought.

 

oh ok makes sense now. i thought it was a picture of it in your garage.

 

nice buy! im so tired of using a cut off wheel hah

 

Yea I finally got tired of trying to cut nice and straight with a sazall and cutoff.

 

yea, it takes skill to cut anything that's very long straight with a vertical saw, horizontal band saws are awesome.
