 unhappy November 6, 2007
The Blade Guide system cannot be adjusted satisfactorily.
The factory was no help. I now have a 400 lb paperweight.
The Carter Rep has agreed to help fit a blade guide system so I don't have to throw the whole thing away. Don't waste your money. Buy a machine with real product support.
 Fisch16"Band Saw - More than I hoped for April 4, 2005

I was in the market for a new band saw so I decided to attend a traveling woodworking show held near Orlando. I looked at all the band saws and was not happy with the prices I was going to pay for the features and quality I wanted until I visited the Fisch booth. I had already purchased a Fisch lathe and drill press and was surprised to see a new band saw being offered. This is the first year Fisch has offered it. Am I glad I went to the show. The fit and finish of Fisch's band saw at $1,000 and features like 12" of re-saw capability, a solid steel frame (weighs 400 lbs.), a sweet deluxe fence system that comes standard along with a roller ball bearing guide system and plenty of power when I fitted it with a 3/4" blade. I chose a 3/4" 3 tooth skip blade and can re-saw heavy, dense woods easily. My shop is wired for 220 volts. The Fisch band saw comes pre-wired for 110/115 volts but can be easily re-wired for 220 by following a simple diagram on the inside of the junction box cover plate.The motor also has two capacitors. Considering my great experience with the other Fisch products, I shouldn't have been surprised at how much better this machine is, but I was. I would highly reccommend this machine over others and you can save yourself $400-$600
