Ordered a Jet 414500 horizontal band saw today

The Vertical Jet arrived at work last Wednesday. I loaded it up on the truck, took it home and realized it was too heavy to unload. What a dingleberry.
My wife and I are in our 60’s, 380 lbs. is just a bit too much to muscle it off the truck. Back to work with it.
We have a forklift at the shop so unloading is a piece of cake.
To add to my frustration, the Certiflat welding table arrived also.
We are in Loreto, Mexico as I write this. I am preoccupied by all the projects, new equipment, placement, construction, planning etc.
What a great problem to have.
The guides on the Jet Vertical 14” saw are roller bearings. It comes with two blades, one for wood and one for steel.
Any preference over Lennox vs Starret blades?
Oh well, have to get ready for the Island tour, have to go,
 
Without a doubt, go with Lenox bi-metal blades.
 
Oh, ok. Latigo, at MJB Welding supply in Yuba City, ca. Said that’s all they sell.
Great, thanks.
 
I’ll take her home when I get back from Mexico. Maybe with a couple friends to lift it off the truck.
