![]() i need a new band saw. for doing projects
i was watching the DIY network the other night and came across this. http://www.lowes.ca/reciprocating-sa...ductItemsImage was wondering if any one had seen it in action? for reefing i would use it for cutting pcv, wood, and corals. has a pretty neat wall mount. ![]() |

![]() Problem I see with this tool is its more like a jig saw or scroll saw compared to a bandsaw. Blades on these would be weaker then a traditional bandsaw.
For PVC & wood I prefer my 10" dual compound sliding miter saw & corals I would suggest a simple wet tile saw.

![]() rockwell is a good brand for power tools but for coral fragging a ring saw or a dremel with a diamond blade would be better.my tile saw cuts a 1/4" wide cut and i'm reluctant to use that for fragging.right now i use my dremel with a flex arm until i decide to by a ring saw
