band saw

I got a little baby band saw today and made a test cut and I love it! I want the oak I need to do the actual piece (I thought I had a scrap long enough, but apprently no.)

I've bought a lot of tools this month. A weed wacker (based on a neighbor's recomendation), the band saw, finally got a real sized shop vac, a hand belt sander (since my little mouse just wasn't cutting it on the last job) and whole lot of plastic shevling.

Many of these tools I'm buying because of taiko, but because I'm currently getting paid by ONE, I figure it's coming out of that money.

What model is it? I'd find a small band saw quite useful.

Ryobi, $130. It was a bit of a pain to get the blade on the wheel right, but after that. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Ryobi-2-5-Amp-Band-Saw-BS904/100593258#.UeQN9sUjv1V

Oh, cool. Thanks!

Looks like this the same saw from a different company:
