Hi,
I'm seriously contemplating replacing my Delta 12" band saw with a larger
capacity saw. I've been considering the Jet 16" but I just saw the
reference to the Grizzly 17" on the rec. with strong reccomendations from
owners and users.
Is there anyone in the Raleigh, NC, area who has one whom I could visit to
see the saw in the flesh, as it were?
And, does anyone have any suggestions on selling my older Delta? There's
nothing wrong with it and I have several blades to go with it. It could go
on eBay for local pickup, I guess, unless someone has a better idea.

Call Grizzly. They can put you in touch with owners of their machines in your
area -- I did exactly that a few years ago when I was in the market for a
bandsaw.

The Triangle Woodworker's Association ( http://www.ibiblio.org/twa/ )
is a large woodworking club based in Raleigh. Among other things, they
have classified ads in their member newsletter that are seen by a lot
of tool-hungry woodworkers... :)

Yes, I belong, and I've already got a bandsaw. :)

Woodcraft is now selling the Rikon 18" bandsaw that got a Best Buy review last
year from FWW. That being said, I don't know who has a Grizzly in your area.
Triangle.forsale is a very active newsgroup in your neck of the woods.
Advertise your Delta there. They have an associated page where you can post
photos (highly recommended if you want to sell something).
