Review: Quality band saw. - This band saw has a half house power motor. In cutting 2x4s, it did not slow down at all. It also has three point bearings, both top and bottom to support the blade. Setup was minimal, and the unit works quite well. The unit also has a 3 year warranty extension, free. Review: This Skill bandsaw is fantastic - This Skill bandsaw is fantastic. It replaced my 35 year old Delta that was about same size. This Skill bandsaw is definitely better than the old Delta, even when it was new. Build quality is great. All ball-bearing blade guides unlike the Delta that used plastic set-off blades guides that were always a PIA. Swapping blades on this Skill is so much easier than my old Delta. Larger sawing work area too. Glad I purchased this one! ## Features - POWERFUL 2.8 AMP INDUCTION MOTOR—Rip through a variety of wood materials with the 2.8 amp induction motor - 2-SPEED DRIVE SYSTEM—Allows tool-free belt tensioning - QUICK BLADE TENSION SETTING—Set blade tension quickly and accurately for clean cuts - PRECISION BALL BEARING AND LOWER BLADE GUIDES—Ensure consistent tracking for accurate cutting performance - RACK AND PINION TABLE ADJUSTMENT—Makes quick angle adjustments - DUST PORT—Accepts standard 2 ½-inch vacuum hoses, minimizing dust in work area - MITER GAUGE—Guides the workpiece when making crosscuts - STEEL BASE—Stabilizes band saw - BLADE-TRACKING SIGHT WINDOW—Allows you to cut with greater accuracy ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BFR2BJQP | | Best Sellers Rank | #138,525 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #19 in Band Saws | | Blade Length | 9 Inches | | Blade Material | Alloy Steel | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand | Skil | | Brand Name | Skil | | Color | Red & Black | | Current Rating | 2.8 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 293 Reviews | | Handle Material | Metal | | Included Components | Blade, Table, Miter Gauge, Dust Port | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 24.02"L x 15.16"W x 12.4"H | | Item Type Name | 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw | | Manufacturer | SKIL | | Manufacturer Part Number | BW9501-00 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 3 Year Limited Warranty | | Model Number | BW9501-00 | | Number of Teeth | 24 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Depth Adjustment | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Special Feature | Depth Adjustment | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | UPC | 195532200254 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 120 Volts | | Warranty Type | Limited | | Wattage | 336 watts | ## Product Details - **Blade Material:** Alloy Steel - **Brand:** Skil - **Color:** Red & Black - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood ## Images ![SKIL 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw for Woodworking - BW9501-00 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51TqGet9l3L.jpg) ![SKIL 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw for Woodworking - BW9501-00 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6191VIVnwSL.jpg) ![SKIL 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw for Woodworking - BW9501-00 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61z2TJcD-sL.jpg) ![SKIL 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw for Woodworking - BW9501-00 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61zaa7eL-uL.jpg) ![SKIL 2.8 Amp 9 In. 2-Speed Benchtop Band Saw for Woodworking - BW9501-00 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+o-447DFL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I cut a 4"x4"?
