AnbullPortable Band Saw with Upgraded Removable Alloy Steel Base, 45°-90° Metal Cutting, 10A 1100W Motor, 5-inch Deep Cut, with .020-by-44-7/8-Inch 14 TPI Saw Blade and Led Spotlight

The media could not be loaded. So once upon a time, in school, shop class had many different power saws. I remember that the big old band saw gave the cleanest smoothest cuts. It also allowed curved cuts if you take it gradual.Learning of a new portable band saw, with an included chop table, at a reasonable price in comparison to the brand name saws, i was anxious to try it. The box was pretty heavy, so I knew it was not all plastic. The product box had a serious hole punched in it. I was surprised Amazon would send it out. However, Anbull did package with styrofoam good. No damage at all to any item inside, which was a relief.In the box: portable ac powered band saw; hefty table with mounted 'vise'; loose saw blade; hex wrenches; manual.Looking it over, the quality of the construction seems very nice. It does not look like cheap molded tools can. Decent heft but not too heavy to handhold. The base/table is small but pretty heavy, and holds the saw very solidly. Based on the price you may say it is a freebie, but i can tell you it is definitely a useful, so far reliable accessory for this saw. The pivot that mounts the saw allows up to 45 degree angle cuts.Having never used a portable, only a shop band saw, I was wondering what the learning curve might be. Not too tough after having tried it out. Installing the blade is somewhat awkward for first timers , but simple enough once you are willing to manhandle the blade and understand it is designed to flex and bend around the wheels.The saw does have variable speeds, which I learned that not even all big brands include. No band saw is quiet, yet just running without a load it is bearable without ear protection. The cuts both in aluminum and wood were very smooth as the video I am attempting will show. Hand-holding is different from circular saws, but also pretty easy once you feel how the saw is responding.I can say this tool impresses me with quality vs price vs adjustability. I look forward to using it on a couple projects i have lined up.EditThe hobby use I have done,.I am still happy.For those interested in TABLE MOUNTING... Swag off road portaband table does work (at least with my version 1 saw) the Swag V4.0 fits. Only modification needed is to add a 'washer' to the clamping screw as the above pics show(red knob)

I’ve owned this saw for almost three years now, used it to cut anything that will fit. Fast and straight cuts, would definitely buy again, exceptional value for the price.

I have only set this up and used it once. But I was able to cut a 1/8 aluminum bar 3 inches wide and it cut quickly and I was able to set up the mitre angle precisely. The cam lock hold down is adequate for small light pieces, but the knurling on the shaft looks like to me it will not last long. It would have been so much better if they would have used a screw jack. The blade was a high quality bimetal blade. But overall, it seems like if you are a hobbyist this will work fine. I had no trouble installing the blade and it ran true, but again, I have only used this once!. I would not recommend this for a professional business.

The media could not be loaded. Bought this saw over a year ago and it's been good to me up until recently. I don't use it but once every month or two but when I do, it's for a repetitious cut in large quantities for a product we manufacture. Overall it's a great saw for the price. There's complaints about accuracy and straight cuts. It is a little difficult to get it "true" but once you do it stays that way until you change it. I've made thousands of short interval cuts with it until recently when I was about done with a major job where I made over 400 cuts it started grinding and locked up. I contacted the seller and asked what the warranty was (They were quick to respond!). I didn't get a definite answer to the warranty but it's been over a year so I wasn't expecting it to still be returnable, instead he asked if I knew what part went out in it and suggested I open it and send pictures. So I removed the front end (Gearbox), took a peek and was pleased to find that it was just the motor bearing that had gone out, no stripped gears and no damage to the motor shaft worm drive. I sent pictures with a description of what I found and he sent me a link to the bearings (I'll add that link at the end) that were super cheap (10 pack for $7.77, They came in 2 days). While I was waiting I sifted through the grease in the gearbox to make sure no ball-bearings fell into that side, and I carefully pried what was left of the old bearing off the motor shaft and inside the housing. When the new bearings arrived I put one on and carefully tapped it in place, I used a sleeve the same size as the center of the bearing to make sure I didn't damage it, and added a little bit more bearing grease to the gears before putting it back together. Needless to say it was a super easy repair job and am very happy with the support I received. Most manufacturers wouldn't go as far as helping you fix your product. I made about 100 more cuts with it after the bearing replacement and it works like new again! Thank you for your awesome support and getting us back in business!Bearings:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XVPGMXQ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Fast shipping. Nice product. I'll be using quite a bit.

I liked the speed at which it cuts thru steel tubing, pipe, square tubing in particular. For the cost of the saw it is high in value and well worth the money spent. The accuracy of the unit I received was spot on, even though the markings for angles are difficult to see. Not a deal breaker. Blade shipped with it went on without a hitch and cut very well. Replacement blades are available locally at Home depot, Lowe's , Harbor freight, etc. Wish I had purchased something like this years ago, it would have made life a lot easier...
