Bandsaws consist of a motorised blade that houses continuously toothed metal sheets. Inner wheels drive the blade and can cut a mix of materials including plastic, different varieties of wood, and metal, with the correct type of blade. I would have preferred seeing a belt drive rather than direct shaft drive at this price, but all things considered it is a quiet, reasonably precise bench saw which whilst fiddly to accurise, once set up is easy to use and makes accurate cuts. I use it in a professional workshop and for the money it's very good, and unlike some other similar machines from other companies, is trade rated so the motor is rated for at least an hours use per day or over 300 hours annually which is about what I use it for. If you are not using the sliding carriage, you can fit one extension table on either side of the blade.

The sliding carriage can be fitted on either side of the bladeso that you can work on the left or right. For 40- years, Charnwood has supplied a wide range of woodworking products for trade and hobby, and Kendal Tools & Machinery are proud to supply them to you at the best possible prices. The main table is precision ground cast iron, and has 2 fabricated side extension tables to give impressive cutting capacities, perfect for the smaller workshop. The induction motor turns the blade via a drive belt which reduces noise and increases accuracy. Blade height and blade angle are controlled using 2 separate handwheels. The sliding carriage, included as standard, is a joy to use with a cast iron bed travelling on 4 bearing guides. Any angle can be set on the long support fence. A screw clamp holds the work secure and a flip over length stop is fitted for repeat cuts. First launched in 2015, the W629 has now become our best selling table saw model. The cutting capacities are big enough for any hobby workshop, providing a level of accuracy only normally found on industrial machinery, with a compact foot print suited to the average sized workshop.

Shaping wood for aesthetic effect is a very important part of any woodworking project, and helps to ensure that as well as being structurally sound, any project you complete is visually appealing too. A crucial step of this is a final sanding to ensure the finish is consistent. The saw itself is relatively easy to set up. The table is square and flat. The out tables are pretty thin pressed metal, but adequate. The fence and fence rail take a while to set up, but end up square if care is taken. The fence itself is extruded aluminium, so light weight. The first thing you'll want to do is update it or stiffen it. You'll also want to sort a zero clearance insert and probably update the riving system if you want to do anything serious. The motor is quiet and powerful enough. The motor spindle is true, with no blade wobble. Talking about the blade, the one supplied is useless, so replace it straight away.

Choosing the right tool for the job will ensure your project runs as smoothly as possible and is completed to the highest standard.
