The rubber tires are junk. I can’t find replacement tire for this saw. I’m going to see if dewalt ones will fit. I do like the auto shut off and it cuts ok.

Esta máquina de corte salió muy defectuosa estos días que empese a utilizarla me di cuenta del defecto que tiene se sale la cinta de corte cuando estamos cortando el material. Y por último se rompio la cinta de corte.

The band saw does a nice job cutting and pretty square after squaring the vice. Another reviewer said no adjustment on z axis, which is the saw to base when raising it- I believe he was referring to. There is some adjustment you can make on back of saw with the bolts that hold the saw to the base. But if the pivot point is not straight to the base this may cause a issue. Mine was fine and I did not make any adjustment to the bolts. A 2 inch pipe was .015 out of square top to bottom. If you want better accuracy buy a $2k dollar band saw. I am very happy so far with the saw. The auto stop is a nice bonus.

There are plenty of other portable band saws out there that have been mounted onto a chop saw base. This one is in a different league. The saw is very high quality with plenty of torque to drive the blade. It has auto shutoff integrated into it that some others do not have. The base is an aluminum casting of high quality. Overall, a well thought out tool that has been manufactured with attention to detail. I like it so much that I'm considering buying a cheap saw for hand held use, and leaving this one as it is! I would buy this one again if I needed to!

Es muy sólida, robusta, estable, la velocidad variable es una delicia, el paro automático es de gran ayuda, compre otras sierras de repuesto mk morse y no las he utilizado, normalmente no uso los consumibles con los que vienen las herramientas (sierra de mesa, ingletadora, sierra circular, sensitiva) la sierra con la que viene es de muy buena calidad, llevo varios proyectos de cortes precisos y la sierra como si nada, es silenciosa y no mancha las paredes con proyecciones como las sensitivas.No la he usado sin la base pero no la compre para eso, la tengo en una estación de corte, no me guío con la escala para calibrar el ángulo de corte, recomiendo calibrarla con un par de escuadras de calidad.En fin una vez que pruebas un equipo como este no hay manera de que vuelvas a la sensitiva de disco abrasivo por presicion-rapidez-bondades como la vel. variable y el paro automático-bajo nivel de ruido etcTotalmente recomendada!

I am stunned by how great a saw this is. I can't see why anyone would leave a negative review. The features of this saw are fantastic. It is of high quality construction, has plenty of power, and cuts square both vertically and horizontally. I didn't buy the version with the vertical saw table because I plan to make one myself but it locks into a vertical position for cutting upright. It also has an LED work light, a strong cast aluminum base, and an AUTOMATIC shutoff! Yes, the saw shuts off at the end of the cut. I am so glad I didn't let the poor reviews sway me. This saw clicked all my boxes and goes way beyond with its many features. Take a look at the smooth finish on the cuts in my photos. I am coming from one of the ubiquitous 4 x 6 roll around metal bandsaws and have put up with years of rough cuts. This saw is going to really be a pleasure to use.

This saw has a lot going for it. If they made it with another $10 in additional quality it would be unbeatable. The miter guage is off but thats easy to work around for a mechanically inclined person. The saw was misaligned so the blade guard got hung up on the auto shutoff switch requiring me to bump it in order for it to engage. The saw is off a few degrees vertically and does not cut plumb. This was evident even on smaller 1.5in tube. Biggest issue is after probably 30 cuts the blade started popping off and there isnt much available for adjusting the wheels for better alignment.

Pros:1) It is set up electrically to operate as a hands free "set it and walk away while cutting" type of machine1b) It shuts itself off when it's done cutting2) It has really good ball bearing blade guides3) It pulls the chips towards the fixed fence, not the clamp unlike most other saws like this4) It has an adjustable spring for the pressure the saw exerts on the blade while cutting - again aiding in the hands free cutting5) The base is die cast aluminum. While it is fairly thin, it is sturdy, rigid and not the cheap stamped steel that most if not all of the other saws like this come with.6) The pivot for the saw (incorporated into the cast aluminum base) is very tight. Meaning, it has zero play side to side. After dialing in the blade guides to make square cuts, I performed many test cuts on round and square tubing with consistent results.Cons:1) Out of the box it cuts way out of square (more like 80-85 degrees) in the Z axis and there is no adjustment to correct this. I was able to modify the blade guides to have adjustment and made it cut perfect. It is unfortunate that the average person buying this unit will not be able to make square cuts in the Z axis2) Problem with the adjustable fence: When cutting any angle other than a 90, the fence moves and you lose your angle setting. I tried tightening down the fence almost to the point of stripping the fasteners and the clamp screw still easily overcomes the fence clamp bolts and the fence moves. I was able to modify the fence mounting system to work for me however it is unfortunate that out of the box this does not work effectively.Other than the two Cons mentioned, this unit is the best one I could find for the price range and actually has features that more expensive units don't have, primarily the electrical features that allow it to shine as a "chop saw" style porta band.

I had been looking for a benchtop band saw for some time and saw these. So far this is an Excellent band saw. With all the features (variable speed control, auto stop, etc) and the base being solid with wheels it's far and above anything else in this category that I looked at. Everything else seemed to have a flimsy stamped steel base. So far this is cutting great through steel and aluminum stock.Only improvement I can see right now is the protractor for setting an angled cut... it's fine if you want "somewhere in the neighborhood of angle XX degrees". If you want to save stock when making angle cuts, you still have to resort to angle blocks or other method for setting the fence and stock. That's a minor thing as none of the others I looked at did any better. But if improved on the next model would send them another leap above the crowd.
