The 11A Port Band Saw is the item. It’s easy to use. The product is made in China. These Band Saws still have the long-term reliability and performance that have made Milwaukee Band Saws the standard for industrial metalworking, but they now have a new, unique technology called Job Site ArmorTM and an all-metal direct drive system that make them even more durable. The Job Site ArmorTM Technology is made of a special composite material and has crush zone barriers that keep things safe for a long time. The direct drive gearing system is made of all metal and lasts longer than a chain drive. It also doesn’t need as much maintenance as a chain drive. Also, a gear protecting clutch protects gear and motors from high impact forces caused by blade lock-ups, and a new debris protection system protects pulleys from debris while they are being used. The new Band Saw has a slimmer motor housing that puts the user in the driver’s line of sight, giving them better cut accuracy and new cut visibility. A new balanced body design lets the tool rest naturally and comfortably in the user’s hands. It also comes with a tool-free locking adjustable shoe, which is a button-activated, tool-free design that lets the user quickly change from a long shoe to no shoe in seconds. You can buy a band saw blade on its own.
Then, after I saw a contractor cut through 5/8-inch steel rod with ease one day, it dawned on me that I’d been working way too hard with sawz-alls over the years and that it was time for a band saw. I thought about getting a lithium ion saw, but I realized that with a small lightweight portable inverter generator, I had a little red “power box” that could go anywhere, do anything, and run for as long as I needed it to, so I didn’t need to buy one. I’ve used it for hours and hours with a Honda EU inverter generator, and I haven’t wished it was cordless at any point in that time. It’s great to be able to “plug in” power with a push of a button, and with 1 gallon of gasoline giving me 12 hours of generator run time, that beats 100 lithium ion batteries.
This Milwaukee is built like a tank, and it is very strong. He fell down into the trench. It’s been thrown around, but it still works.
You want the weight of the saw to cut. I like that the speed can be changed. The trigger is very easy to press. The only problem with this is that it can only cut things that are about 4.5 inches across. First, I thought this was not important. When you have a saw like this that can cut almost anything, given enough time, you tend to use it everywhere and for everything. Finally, you will want to cut it. My job is done. I’ve cut everything from wood to plastic to steel to wire. If only this would fit. It will cut pretty much everything. In our fabrication shop, this saw has taken the place of the large, liquid-cooled saw that was used for most of the work. It’s just so useful. I think it’s a good idea to buy an extra set of blades and keep them in the case with the saw. Portable band saw beginners often start with many teeth per inch out of fear that they won’t last as long with too few teeth. I used to like anything with more than 10 because it takes too long to cut and I’ve become so used to this saw. Because the blades are made of steel, they last a lot longer than a sawz-all blade. There is no excitement or drama, and it’s just a very precise, smooth, quiet cut that you can do over and over again.
