it's portable .. movable on rollers , but she's a big shop band saw . I dont use it alot , this is why I havent purchaced one before .. + I really dont have the room for it .. but it's such a great deal and I know i'll want it for my 2WD build , i'm having a hard time passing it up

Monday I will head out to a buddy's steel place and pick up some scrap to practice with... Looking forward to seeing the bandsaw you get..
