Rikon 10-326 14-Inch Deluxe Band SawSemi-Pro

The Rikon 10-326 resaws up to 13 inches, runs at two blade speeds, and adjusts guides tool-free — a package designed for woodworkers who want a capable 14-inch saw without moving to premium Laguna or Powermatic pricing. The buyer uses a bandsaw regularly, values two-speed versatility for both wood and non-ferrous work, and wants a heavy cast iron table without paying for the disc brake and ceramic guide systems of the Laguna 14BX. Buyers who primarily cut wood at a single speed can save significantly with the Jet JWBS-14SFX.

• Two blade speeds (1445 and 2950 FPM) give genuine multi-material capability owners consistently use for both wood and non-ferrous work
• Spring-loaded tool-free blade guide adjustment is notably faster than competitor systems — owners cite this as a daily quality-of-life improvement
• 1.75 HP handles sustained hardwood resawing through wide boards including hard maple without hesitation
• Quick-lock trunnion table angle system and quick-release blade tension lever streamline blade changes
• 5-year Rikon warranty with customer service cited as above-average for this price point

• Factory setup requires adjustment out of the box — owners consistently report needing to square the table and check guide alignment before first use
• Frame weld alignment issues in documented cases — off-square installation requires hands-on correction before trusting the saw
• Adjustment bolt on the fence head falls into the miter slot, making fence positioning a two-handed operation
• Max blade width is 5/8 inch — narrower than the 3/4 inch standard on competing saws at this price

Accepts 111-inch blades, 3/16 to 5/8 inch wide; 4-inch dust port in lower wheel compartment; 6-inch tall rip fence with re-saw bar included; spring-loaded guides accept standard Cool Blocks as replacements; Timber Wolf and Lenox 111-inch blades are direct fits; optional mobility kit available from Rikon
