Good luck at the auction. I’ve had my Rockwell bandsaw over 30 years. Other bandsaws bigger and smaller have come and gone through my shop but that is one saw I will never part with. I replaced the tires and bearings about 6 years ago. I upgraded the motor from 1/2hp to a 3/4hp when I found out the smaller one couldn’t work hours on end ripping laminates from oak. But that was a long time ago.
Let us know how it turns out.
