Used Unisaw

[DavidR8 [OP]]

Unless something goes terribly wrong I may be picking up a Unisaw for $200!
Waiting to hear if it's 1 ph or 3 ph.

It's a single phase motor and the owner is going to drop it off at my house!

Can’t get much better than that.

Holy cow! I paid more than that for a Unifence alone! What a great deal.

Score!
Serial number UU1578 now lives at my house.
52 in. Unifence. 3 hp. Extension table legs.

Came from a sign shop that got caught with no guards on the saw.
They could not find a guard so decided to get rid of it.

I will sell my 2200 and 6201 and likely end up paying less than $100 for this baby!
I am so excited.
It is my dream saw and will keep my all original 2300 bandsaw company.

Nothing wrong with a unfence and that saw is only slightly newer than mine. It's got the cast iron plinth base.

And if you got the goose egg/motor cover that’s sitting under the fence extension on the right, you could sell it for more than you bought the saw! ;-)

Got the beast into my rolling stand tonight so I can keep it out of the way for the moment.

Looks rough, but at that price, nobody would mind putting some hours into cleaning it up. Can it be fitted with a Shark guard?

David if that saw has steel handles on the up, down and tilt wheels it is the same vintage as mine. The first pic looked like black handles. Please don't mess with that fence, if you got the unfence with the saw, in terms of replacement until you actually know all of it's features. I don't have one but it is a damn good fence. Slides and flips etc. You will learn to love it.

52'' rails or 52'' cut to right of blade? I do not like to have to walk around very wide saws to collect the cut off pieces but 52'' rails would be a shame to cut down.

IMO the Unifence is about the best you can get. There are those who lean toward the Bies with ample justification so it's probably a toss up.. Good advise to clean it up and play with it for a while before deciding.
