Time for a new bandsaw and the choice seems to be clear to me:

But I'm wondering why this one is more expensive yet apparently a lower spec:

I have had the opportunity to play with the second one and the main advantage I can see is that the bearings have neat hand adjustable bearings whereas the first one needs tools.
Haven't seen the first one 'in the flesh' yet and it is currently out of stock (but I'm not in a hurry).
Am I missing something obvious? Anyone have experience with either?
The £100 difference will buy a couple of M42 blades (or a new Jet pillar drill)!
This one has to last me a loooong time so want to make sure I get the best I can.
