I've got a Delta 9" bandsaw for sale. I bought a 14" one some time ago and this one's sat under my bench ever since. Comes with the manual, spare blade, miter gauge and work light. $65, probably best for local pickup, I'd imagine shipping would be prohibitive.

David,

Can you tell me what type of wood your floor is made of? We're looking at putting in hardwood floors in our house and your walls are the same color as ours. Your floor looks nice with that color paint.

Hey Gary,
The floors are from Ikea, I can't tell you the exact type, but I can tell you they no longer make it. We have some cracked pieces in our highest traffic area that we wanted to replace, and they no longer carry this style.

The Ikea floors go down pretty easily once you get the knack, but where we have the cracks is where we were trying to finish at 2am and were rushing because we were tired, a bit snippy with each other (we'd been working all weekend on it) and we weren't as careful with the joints as we should have been. If you take your time, the joints will line up perfectly, although I'd recommend either a compressor & nozzle to blow out each joint before you make it, or canned air, something. All it takes is a tiny-tiny-tiny piece of whatever to make the joint all but impossible to go together. If there's nothing in the way though, it's easy. We've since re-floored the whole rest of the house with Ikea flooring (had it done by my nephew, younger knees & back), and we're pretty happy with the result.

I think they're 5-5/8" wide each, buy about 3-1/2' or so?
