Oh, I have heard of and used an OSS, I didn’t recognize it from that initialism.

This sand-flee is an interesting piece of equipment, I’m not sure how the work holding part of it works from their website but I’ll try to read up on it more.

Loren, I’m not pulling up many hits for the Hitachi resaws. Are they still sold in the US and if so happen to know of a distributor? Alternatively, who else makes machines in this class? I’m not having much luck finding other band saws that can take a 3” wide blade but maybe I’m looking in the wrong places? I can envision myself doing plenty of resawing in the future for other business projects, so I would rather not skimp on a smaller machine with narrower blades if it will make a substantial difference in performance.
