I don't know much about old arn, I'm not really in the market for a bandsaw, and I certainly don't have the space for this one, but...
This beauty popped up in my suggested Kijiji ads, about an hour away from me. It sure does look like a beauty, and at $650 (= $485 USD) it seems like a hot deal. But I really have no idea. What do y'all think of it? If I go and look at it, what are the critical things I need to check for? It looks dead simple, like a bandsaw stripped down to only its most necessary parts. If I get it, I would certainly get some thin wheel and blade guards fabricated for it... looks scary as-is.
I'm moving back to the States in a year and I'm looking to have a shop that can handle this, so I was thinking of putting this in deep storage until then. I have no idea how I'm going to broach the topic with my amazing tolerant-but-to-a-point wife
