..ta for the link, just put my order in...just need the saw now!

Hi and ta for the tip. When you have finished cutting do you slacken off the tensioner each time?....(I usually do on my current bandsaw as I assume it takes the pressure of the wheel bearings when not in use?)

..yes please..any details?

..I had been looking at some Youtube vids on the Shcheppach and value for money it seems like a good buy and I would have been happy to get one. (I am only a (very) casual user). My old toy Aldi bandsaw has served me well and I have been more than happy with it for what it does, but I just...

Hi all, getting a little excited as after "months" of procrastination and lack of general availability my new toy is about to arrive. By the time I had decided to take the plunge and get a Scheppach Basa 3 they all seemed to have disappeared, so after further procrastination I decided to go for...

Pre covid I was going to get a Scheppach Basa 3 which is 12 inch saw and not much more than your budget and seems to have some good reviews, however they seem to have gone "off sale" for the time being...

I do buy into the "buy a bit bigger than you think you will need" philposophy, but how far do you go, and a lot depends on what you actually want to do and also the space you have to accommodate one? I got a "toy" bandsaw from Aldi a few years ago as a "spur of the moment" purchase and it has...

..that's how I feel about my bandsaw... :) ....

Hi all, just about to build my 3rd shed. Completed my cutting list and getting quotes for timber. Spoke to a local supplier who reckons timber prices have now doubled. Should I wait it out?...(not in any desperate hurry....)

...seriously scary!!!.....

..I always fancied a table saw, but I have limited space, and the bl@@dy things scare me to death!! ..for me it would be the bandsaw option....

..ta for the heads up...tried both...."out of stock"...I am not in any particular hurry though, so happy to wait a bit...

Hi yes, I have been looking, but not a lot about in our "local" area, and anything over 50 odd miles kills anything 2nd hand on delivery costs....but I will keep looking!

Hi and thanks for the reply. Another forum member has also been in touch as they are selling. Unfortunately the transportation costs make this a bit of a none starter! (I have been quoted £200+ for delivery!). But thanks anyway, and if there is anybody a little nearer to mid Wales I would be...

Hi all and thanks for the replies. It looks like I will have to "wait it out"!...luckily not in any particular hurry, but wish I had made my mind up sooner. Charnwood seem to still have stock but after seeing them in the flesh a few years ago I am not keen although I guess they are all...

Matthias Wandel's designs .. ...very impressive, but way beyond my somewhat limited capability!! (and space...)

Ah yes Suez...forgot about that one..!

Being trying to upgrade to a new 12 inch bandsaw to replace my little Aldi cheapie for the last few weeks, but all those I fancy are all showing "out of stock" and have been for a while?.....is it Brexit or covid?

..I got the Aldi version of this saw a few years ago and as recommended on this forum I purchased a Tuffsaws blade which transformed the machine, (despite the crappy fence and "not really flat" pressed steel table). Recently purchased another Tuffsaws blade to replace the original one as I had...

...typical (of me), spent ages investigating (procrastinating), which bandsaw to get and finally decided the Scheppach Basa 3 as it seemed to offer the best bang for your buck. Plenty about until I decided to go online the other day and actually order one and found everybody had "not in...
