Fox F28-186 bandsaw

[divein]

Has anyone got the above bandsaw? If so I would be interested in their opinion. Been looking at secondhand for a couple of months and missed out on a few. Ideally I would like a bench top size with a minimum cutting depth of 6 inches for potential re-sawing so the Fox at 188 pounds delivered seems a good deal even if it is a Chinese clone. Thanks in advance for any help.

Avoid like the plague! Had three last year...they all went back. Complete and utter rubbish (look elsewhere on this forum)....crap like this should be illegal.

I'm sorry but I also think your expectations regarding depth of cut plus re-sawing are wildly over ambitious

Hope this isn't too late.

Fortunately I came across an Inca 205 in very good condition which I bought instead. Just about to put a Tuff Saw on it. Thanks for your response.
