    Aldi Bandsaw ( new model) coming soon. Buy it or choose other model

    good idea. If we do the maths ( which I failed at school so don't quote me :) ) when the bandsaw came available to buy within a couple of hours it had already sold 90+ and I bet quite a few of that number were from here and maybe even this thread . So lets say 50 . And of those 50 I bet at least...

    I know you are keen to get a heads up on the tech specs before delivery, but I think the one you have listed is a slightly different model from the one that we are getting. You may just have to be patient :)

    Novice question for edge gluing boards

    no need to over complicate things n that width . Have found in the past that a combination of biscuits ( for alignment only remember they don’t add strength) good cabinet clamps I.e that have a flatsurface so not pipe clamps and some cauls and you will be golden

    Novice question for edge gluing boards

    forgot to add if you are worried use clamping cauls as those and the underside of your clamps should be enough to keep the boards all ;level . https://www.finewoodworking.com/2011/03/08/clamping-cauls-the-secret-to-great-glue-ups

    Novice question for edge gluing boards

    not an expert by far, but I believe the common wisdom for edge gluing multiple boards and only doing a few at a time ( i.e you want 6 boards but do 3 at a time ) is either down to available clamps , as in how many you have and width capacity but also down to the size of your planer. So lets say...

    Tbh Peter I have no knowledge of this model so wasn’t sure if it was a worthy competitor. Maybe if it is an oddball I might hold out for the cheaper Aldi one

    Aldi Bandsaw ( new model) coming soon. Buy it or choose other model

    Just thinking...the Aldi one seems to be heavily delayed so who knows when it will arrive .. So looking at Rutlands which is always pretty good quality and they have their model in the clearance now at £199. ok so £50 more but just wondering off anyone has had experience of this model and does...

    Never re-sawn timber so can't say it would be useful for me. Anyway size of workshop dictates something like this . Each to their own I guess.
