    Elektra Bekum 316g

    I still have one upgrade guide kit fitted and converted to spring tension of the blade, as I think it easier on the wheel bearings. Good small bandsaw dose all I require.

    A common problem with these bandsaws can certainly recommend the upgrade from Bedford saws as I have already replaced two set for friends.
