 Featuring a powerful 1-3/4 HP motor and a wide range of intuitive features, the JWBS-18 delivers quick, accurate cuts. |
Designed to provide you with the capabilities and flexibility you need to tackle jobs both big and small, the 710750 takes bandsaw blades sized between 1/8 inch and 1-1/2 inches to cover any application, and it offers a 12-1/4-inch depth resaw capacity for cutting large pieces of wood, slicing veneers, and trimming book-matched panels. For added flexibility, the generously sized cast-iron table measures 19 x 19 inches, which gives you plenty of work support for a variety of jobs.
Tool-Free Adjustment, Rigid Guide Post, and Rip Fence Increase Productivity
When it's time to start cutting, the tool-free guide adjustment system makes set-up quick and easy. While you're working, the rigid guide post (measuring 1.0 x 1.0 inches) keeps the blade cutting in line, and Jet's exclusive quick-release, precision T-square-style rip fence with resaw post helps you achieve the straightest, most accurate cuts.
Ball bearing Guide System, Dust Port, and Cast-Iron Wheels for Durability
To help reduce vibrations and enhance tool life, the 710750 comes complete with a ball bearing guide system that cuts down on friction, and balanced, cast iron wheels equipped with vulcanized rubber tires for easy tracking. Additionally, a four-inch diameter dust port lets you attach your dust collection system directly to where the dust is created, for a clean work surface, and a reduction of wear-and-tear causing debris.
Safety Features for Protection and Accuracy
When it comes to safety and accuracy, the 710750 offers a host of protective features that help enhance performance. First, a blade tracking adjustment window lets you view your blade position on the wheel tire. Next, a built-in cutting height scale and upper blade guide adjustment easily sets the blade guide height above the table for proper wood clearance. Finally, independently adjustable guides and support bearings positively support different blade sizes so you can use the right blade for the job.
User-Friendly Design for Easy Operation
The 710750 also boasts user-friendly operation. Large cast-iron handwheels make smooth, easy tension and upper guide adjustments, and the blade tension scale lets you select exact blade tension for widths between 1/8-inch and 1-1/2 inches. For added convenience, a single tracking adjustment knob simplifies the blade tracking process, and a lower wheel brush helps to eliminate sawdust buildup on rubber tires.
The 710750 measures 31.5 x 80 x 20.5 inches (WxHxD), weighs 450 pounds, and is covered by a five-year warranty.
About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich Products
Opened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you'll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.

One a Shopsmith and another a 14" Delta. Still have them all. So, I needed a resaw bandsaw and bought the jet. No problems except one. I think that the maker of tools should be made to use them for a week, or two. They should also be forced to change the blades over and over again. The problem is it's almost imposible to losen and tighten the back bottom screw to adjust the bearings. When I first got it I had to take the table off to align the blade. The simple sloution is to drill a small 1/4" hole on the table top directly over the screw. Then with a long hex wrench you can easly get to the screw. now why didn't they think about that at the factory? 69 of 77 people found the following review helpful:  Not Impressed at all, By This review is from: JET 710750 JWBS-18X 18-Inch 1-3/4-Horsepower Resaw Woodworking Bandsaw with Roller Guides, 115/230-Volt 1-Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) I have had several Jet tools and have liked all of them, so when I sold my blue Jet "14" bandsaw and decided to move up in size to one of the new "18" saw's, Jet was the first thing that came to my mind. I read several reviews of the current Jet "18" saw with "10" resaw capacity, at the same time I realized that Jet had come out with an upgrade to this saw to fix alot of the complaints with the regular "18" saw. With the "18X" they added "12" of resaw height and beefed up the trunions under the table and added more HP. After I got the "18X" home I found there was so many bad points to this saw that I took it back to woodcraft and swapped it for a Delta "18" and did not like it either and took it back also. Now I am looking again! Pros: 1. 1 3/4 hp motor 2. "12" resaw 3. Ball bearing guides Cons: 1. Build quality...

Some not so good things - Adjusting the blade guides is a total pain - to move the lower guides requies tipping the table up and jamming your hand underneath to loosen the hex bolts. - Raising the cutting height, even 2-3 ", causes you to need to readjust all the guides. - Tightening the guides changes their settings - need to guess to get it right. |
