Hey out there!

I’m considering a new bandsaw,the price of the Jet 18” is sweet, but the power and resaw capacity of the MINI-Max 16 sounds even better ,the price difference is substantial(650.00 difference)and so far i may have needed a 12″ hieght three times in 5yr’s thank god for riser blocks.but in the future who knows. Maybe someone can recomend one of the mid sized saws in the $1500.00 price range. I know what most of my options are but maybe a veteran can advise me on performance .
