The vertical position allows for freehand cutting of large, thin work pieces.

Chris' Tips

Chris' Tips
Our 4x6 band saw has three speeds. Use low speed for high strength steel, stainless steel, and other harder materials. Use the medium steel for mild steel including structrual shapes. Use high speed for aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. High speed works well for wood and plastic, too.structural

Learn about Selecting and Using Band Saw Blades.

I found a great rule of thumb in Cutting Tool Engineering for selecting the correct band saw blade. It's the rule of 3, 6, 12, 24. You want at least three teeth on the work all the time, you don't want more than 24 teeth on the work at any one time, and what you would like is between 6 and 12 teeth on the work all the time.

Shipping

These machines ship by truck because they are simply too heavy and bulky for UPS Parcel Service. We normally ship truck orders a day or two after we receive the order. We add the following shipping cost to your order total:

.	Local	Far West	Other Continental US
Delivery to commercial address	$59	$115	$145
Delivery to school or secured location	$79	$155	$175
Liftgate, additional	Incl.	$20	$20
Delivery to freight terminal	$115	$115	$145

"Local" refers to the parts of Southern California served by Hollywood Delivery Service.

"Far West" refers to ten western states: CA, OR, WA, AZ, NV, ID, UT, NM, CO, WY.

For delivery to Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico, we will check with several trucking companies to get the best price and then call for your approval before we ship.

For Canadian shipments we will provide an all-inclusive quotation for shipping, brokerage, and taxes. The brokerage fees are $108. The taxes vary by province. If you have a customs broker or want to self-clear customs please let us know.

We ship machines only to the US and Canada.

The shipping charges shown above cover the cost of shipping the machine and anything else that you purchase with it, including a second (and third) machine, up to 700 pounds total.

A "commercial address" has a company name, a public entrance and posted hours of operation. If you do not have a forklift or loading dock at your place of business, you must add the liftgate fee. If you are running a business at your residence without a public entrance and posted company name and hours of operation it is considered a residence and a not commercial address.

Schools, colleges, universities, university hospitals, military bases, government facilities and other secured locations are charged a limited access fee that is included in the amounts in the chart above.

If you choose Terminal Pickup, and there is not a terminal within 30 miles, we will confirm with you that you still want Terminal Pickup.

Liftgate service is included in the residential delivery fee. The trucking company will call you to schedule the delivery.

We offer inside delivery which gets the machine inside one doorway or into your garage:
