: I have the same saw, 3 years old and two bearings are howling like
: a banshee. Also my guides don't stay well adjusted. I am having
: to re-adjust/tighten them fairly often. I am not impressed with
: the guides. Otherwise, even though I am an old American iron
: lover, it is a good bandsaw for the money. I will probably keep
: it even after I finish the 30" American restoration.

Big difference Jeff, you use it commercially and I don't do that anymore, now it's a hobby :)
