Hi. Both bandsaws available second hand for similar price, and seemingly in good condition. Which one to go for? The older one is bigger, but quite a bit older, and seems to have the traditional style blade guides, the newer one has the ceramic style which seem to get mixed reviews.
Thanks
 
OK bigger machine more power there is your answer. Also I kind of favor the bearing guides. They do ware out but they are cheap and easy to replace.
Regards
John
