Not sure but most like the timberkig or woodmizer, Akso the super trak net is a beast. I have used this one and it is an animal

So smooth to use and sit in a chair and operate it (trak met)

Its what I have. Loaded this 28" Oak on it today. [emoji4] Bought a Timber Frame Construction Book so will be building the project in the book with the Oak and the new (to me) Makita Chain Mortiser @Johnsondsecured for me. [emoji4]  

When I get a bandsaw it'll be the Logosol b751 or the b1001.

If I could have afforded it I would have went for the 1001, there is so much more you can add to it, saying that the 751 Pro can have a fair amount added now too. Logosol really hung the buyers of the first gen 751 out to dry, very disappointing.

There's a fully restored. Dominion 24" Planer round my way for sale. Looks to be a cracker, but I dont have the space or 3ph to run it.

The project in the book I bought is a 16 x 12 foot garage or workshop. Its a starter project that incorporates a lot of the basic joinery skills required in Timber Framing. The design is old American/early settlers and as such the timbers are left more 'rustic'.  Will suit me fine for just now. 

 

The Sedgwick sounds great though, pity I cant put it to good use or a good home.

 

Lets see a picture of your 24 x 12!
