Detailed Review
The QD-KYOHO 14-Inch Band Saw provides serious capacity and dedicated dual-speed power for woodworkers tackling everything from resawing thick lumber to fine curved work. Built around a welded steel plate frame and dynamically balanced cast aluminum wheels, it delivers the stability needed for steady, vibration-free operation in a home or professional shop.
Driving the unit is a 2 HP, 14-amp motor that starts quickly with low operating noise. The dual-speed drive lets you match the speed to your stock, offering 1445 FPM for dense hardwoods and 2950 FPM for clean cuts in softwoods. With a cutting height capacity of up to 13 inches, a 13-5/8-inch throat width, and a 111-inch blade, this machine handles large boards and deep resawing tasks with ease.
For angled cuts and joinery, the heavy 21-1/2-inch by 15-3/4-inch cast iron table sits on a cast iron bogie, tilting 45 degrees to the right and 5 degrees to the left. Adjustments remain straightforward thanks to upper and lower guide structures with vertical and horizontal adjustments, alongside a quick-setting blade tensioning mechanism to simplify blade changes and setup.
While this tool offers substantial capacity, its welded steel build and large footprint mean it requires dedicated workshop space. The unit also includes a work light socket and overload protection, though users must provide their own compatible lighting setup to take advantage of the socket fixture.
Verdict: The QD-KYOHO 14-Inch Band Saw is an excellent choice for woodworkers seeking deep resaw clearance, dual-speed versatility, and heavy cast iron stability. It is best suited for committed makers looking to upgrade their workshop cutting capacity.
