Guys can I get some opinions of the below videos? They show the upper section of the saw vibrating, in fact vibrating is an understatement, its visibly shaking. According to an initial video I sent Laguna, they seem to think this is acceptable and to be expected from a machine with these size of...

I use 4 of these hooked up via thermostat and timer switch to heat my 5m x 6m workshop. They work out to less than 1Kw of power and takes a couple hours to get it up to temp (ususally around 17-19 degrees currently in winter). Key thing for me was insulation when I built the workshop, 100mm...

Hi all, first of all I have yet to highlight any of these issues directly with the UK arm of Laguna, but plan on doing so this week. My saw turned up at the end of November after a 5 month wait from ordering it in May. On top of that, I had to pay an additional £250 due to global price rises...

You might find spalted sycamore or beech is easier and cheaper to buy here, given they grow natively and wont have additional import costs. I got a few nice 2m slabs of spalted sycamore from Scottish Hardwoods a few months back.

Do you have any UK distribution yet? Thanks to Brexit I now think twice about ordering from other European countries thanks to the additional import costs.

Thanks, I ended up just going with the best price I could find, Biven Machinery. Downside is they are saying September for delivery 😞

Thanks Nick, I couldn't find any places with stock in the end. Do you have any idea when the next shipment is due? Also, how do I go about ordering spare parts such as riving nives, insert plates etc for the Fusion 3 table saw in the UK?

So I've gone for the Laguna 18BX. Looks like a more solid machine than the record power plus the extra HP in the motor, guides etc swayed it. I did also look at ACM saws which look very good as well, however the equivalently priced saws they had come with less features than the laguna, I imagine...

Looks like my wallet might be taking a beating then... 👍

Thanks, luckily I'm in no rush but equally don't necessarily wan't to be waiting months and months. Presumably a result of Covid/Brexit? It was dissapointing to see the price of the sabre 450 jumped by £150 in January.

Thanks, I suppose my main question would be is it worth the extra money over other such saws. How are the ceramic guides? I've got a Fusion 3 table saw so I know the quality and overall finish of their machines is very good. I suppose im just looking to justify the extra £800 over the record...

So i'm looking for a large bandsaw, looks like my main options are the record power sabre 450 or the laguna 18bx. I doubt anyone here has owned both saws but any advice from owers of either saw would be appreciated as neither are exactly cheap, but the laguna is quite a bit more expensive.

Have you tried printing the threads in place?

Thats the interesting, I imagine a lot of people will move over from Fusion360 if they release it at that price point.

I've been doing 3D printing for about a year so I'm no expert. I bought a Prusa MK3S based on the countless views online that, while being more expensive than the chinese machines, its one of the easier machines to learn with as there is far less tweaking required to get really good results...

I sort of assumed machines like this are so niche they wouldn't be of interest to scammers... How wrong!

Changed the thread title, should hopefully serve as a warning now!

Pretty sure the magazine racks in the background have www.MWMachinery.co.uk logo on them as well...

So there are some new big machines showing on gumtree, these are apparantly in Bridge of Earn. The wording of the ads look very similar, all have "transport available". Certainly making me more sceptical, I'm gonna message both sellers, see what response I get...

Spotted these on gumtree just now. Too big for my shop but might be a bargain for someone else on here. Casolin 530 Thicknesser Planer £3000...
