Right Ernie,
The 21" Griz is a dandy saw. 5hp motor has never bogged down. I'm using a Woodmaster CT blade. I slice a lot of wood with it but when the blade goes dull the blade drifts a bit. The fence system left a lot to be desired though.

FYI , grizz has an internet 5 % coupon discount for web orders plus the 514x2b is 100$ less.Thanks for heads up abt fence .hutch., there are a nunber of youtube videos on bandsaw blade drift . I use a simple 2by 3 stick with the drift angle on it to figure out how to tilt the fence.
