Title: this was my first band saw
Product review: As a new wood worker I wanted to fill my garage with quality tools at a reasonable price. Grizzly seems to really fit the bill when it comes to this. I've had the g0555 for a little over a year now and I've enjoyed it so much that I purchased the 8" parallelogram jointer yesterday. The quality of the band saw is a lot higher than I expected for the price, and I was pleasantly surprised when I picked it up from the shipping depot. When I first used it I was impressed by the quietness, and the stability, but not the quality of cut. For a while I was a bit put off by how much drift I was getting in the blade. As soon as I changed the blade that came with the riser block kit for a higher quality blade, it was like using a new machine. The bottom line for this saw is that it is a fantastic value, but buy it along with a good quality blade and you won't be disappointed.
