I feel your avarice Bobbi and I'll raise you the steam driven band saw I saw in Ontario once. 70+" wheels up and down, all beautiful cast iron , as big as a small house, and heavier than a small locomotive, with a very cool compound tandem driving it.

My uncle,who has a little detla bandsaw ,was drooling and mutter ing now THAT's a bandsaw.
