In a hurry? Here are the best products at a glance.
You’re here to find the best band saws, so let’s get right to it. Below you will find the top 10 band saws for the money, including our recommended top pick and budget pick. Before we dive into the reviews, here’s what you need to know when shopping.
Motor: When buying your band saw, pay close attention to the motor. A more powerful motor will be able to handle bigger workloads and harder materials without getting bogged down and burning out.
Cut Depth: The cut depth is another important spec to consider, especially if you will be working with a lot of different wood sizes. The deeper the band saw can cut, the bigger pieces of wood it can handle in one pass.
Speeds: Sometimes, you will need the band saw to make a clean, fast cut, and sometimes, you will find you need to make the cut a little slower. Keep an eye on the speeds the saw offers (measured in FMP).
Dimensions: As you begin to accumulate tools, you will notice how quickly they can fill up a workspace. You should consider the dimensions of a band saw to make sure it will fit in whatever area you do your work.
Table Size: After you consider the dimensions of the entire tool, consider the size of the table. If you are working with large pieces of wood, you will want to find a band saw with a large table. This comes down to personal requirements.
Warranty: Before buying, take a quick look at the included warranty. You should make sure you buy a tool that is well-covered by at least a one-year warranty in case there are any defects. Warranties change, so double check this.
