Two years of intensive research and design went into the Laguna 1412, and the result is a band saw of uncompromised quality. Laguna's first offering in the 110V market, the 1412 makes industrial-quality features accessible for woodworkers in home shops and pro shops alike. Laguna's famous pyramid-shaped spine and an oversized trunnion offer incredible rigidity for vibration-free performance. The solid cast iron wheels also dampen vibration, are precisely balanced, and are fitted with polyurethane tires that run cooler and last longer. The generously sized table is micro-polished to a beautiful sheen and includes a precision fence that can be flipped vertically for resawing, or horizontally for standard ripping. The magnetic blade guard is raised and lowered with a worm-drive rack and pinion so your blade guides stay perfectly adjusted regardless of the height. The saw includes Laguna's renowned ceramic blade guide system. A huge, quick release lever relieves tension for fast blade changes, while convenient viewing windows allow you to check both tension and tracking while the machine is running.
Note: Optional light (#52667, sold separately) and wheel accessories (#51097, sold separately) shown are not included with the saw.
Features:
- Magnetic blade guard is easy to remove
- Includes heavy-duty stand
- 4" dust port captures dust at the source
- Tension window makes it easy to adjust your blade tension
- Tracking window lets you track the blade while the saw is on
- Cast iron wheels are electronically dynamically balanced
- Worm gear and pinion is ultra-smooth and engineered to have minimum flex even when fully extended
- Heavy-duty oversized cast trunnion for stability
- Includes premium anodized aluminum throat plate
- Hi/low aluminum fence flips up for resawing
- Oversized power button features safety key to prevent unwanted start ups

An all time best tool purchase
I have owned a few smaller band saws over the past 20 years. Most of them were not worth the trouble. They all involved constant 'tuning' to get a decent cut.
Once I set eyes on this saw in a Rocker store, I knew I Would eventually own one. I was fascinated with the ease of use, and sturdy construction.
The guides are very easy to adjust quickly when needed. The cast iron top is solid. The fence is spot on in accuracy and easy to use.I love how much power the saw offers. Easy for rip and resaw purposes. Great for almost anything. I have taught my children and my wife how to safely use this saw when they have projects. I can't think of a more useful tool in my arsenal. 5 stars here. All the way. The mobile base is a plus. I 3d printed a mount to install my own light too.

14/12 is a 10/10
This is my first foray into bandsaws and after 1 week I'm really pleased with my investment. I'm 5'11" and appreciate the lower table. The blade is easy to install and set up. The guides are pretty simple and don't require any tools. The resaw capability is especially impressive with little blade drift. Laguna missed the boat on a few things: As others have written, the instructions could use more details, but it is manageable. Also, the Laguna stand isn't worth the money IMHO. It is a top heavy machine and having the weight distributed to only three points when being moved doesn't make much sense. In hindsight, I would go with a Rockler four wheel system. Also, the base is screaming for a door to allow for storage. This is so apparent and can't understand how Laguna missed it. Also, the fence wasn't completely square with the table, but a shim from a soda can worked perfect. Sounds like a lot of negatives, but overall, this machine is solid and I'm very happy with this purchase; I wouldn't hesitate recommending it.

Great machine.
This saw arrived in perfect condition. Contrary to the directions, however, I was able to unpack and set up all by myself. And I am 160 lbs, 76 years old.
Required minimal adjustments and alignment. Very impressive. Mounted the 3/4" resaw king blade and using the fence I cut a 1/32" slice from the face of a 4" piece of cedar, perfectly parallel.

Great machine with lots of value
I received my saw in approximately a week after ordering On a Friday. I was extremely impressed with the way it was packaged and shipped no problems whatsoever. Over all I am very satisfied with the purchase of the saw and its performance running on 110 V. I purchased a mobile base from rocker as I was not overly impressed with my mobility kit for my Laguna laid and I'm completely happy with how that went together and handles this machine. I am boxed assembled the saw by myself and had no issues whatsoever everything was very straightforward and really not tricky in any respect. Role I am completely satisfied with this saw and the base option that I Joes and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an upgrade to an older style saw or for their 1st new saw.

Laguna 14/twelve
Please with everything except the fence tilt adjustment. That is achieved by two Allen screws. But the screws introduce a screw of the fence when used to true up the fence. Poor engineering. I expect better but am pleased with he saw otherwise.

Great addition to my shop
I wanted a bandsaw that had decent resaw capacity. After doing some research and reading a lot of reviews I decided on this one.
Assembly and setup was easy (watch their YouTube series on it, way better detail than the manual) and so far it works as well or better than I expected.

Laguna 1412 Bandsaw
I made this purchase to Re-saw Black Walnut, from a tree off the farm. To set up and adjust all the ceramic bearing is SIMPLE, easy step by step instructions. I had made a Caution Decal so "I" remember to release the blade tension & to tighten before using.
That is the only thing I can suggest. Other than that I LOVE it. It does EXACTLY what I wanted it to do.

Outstanding!
I have a very small shop - about 9.5' x 12.5 feet so space is at a premium. I bought the expensive Rockler wheeled stand so I could move it around and it moves like butter. I am not an expert woodworker but for me this band saw is fantastic. You can repeatedly cut slices less than 1/8" thick off lumber and they are dead on every time. Since I don't have a table saw (yet), I'm using this saw for just about everything I do when I'm not cutting with my power miter box. Fantastic tool; delighted I bought it.

I'm having trouble lining up the guide fence so I can resaw some wood into consistent thickness. When I tighten the knob down that holds the fence in place it tends to drift at an angle. I start cutting and the thickness is not consistent all the way through. How do I fix this problem?
BEST ANSWER: You can fully adjust the fence angle with 3 allen head fasters in the rear off the fence, adjust the fence parallel too edge of the table top and you problem is solved... Check that your table top is level to the blade and fence too... You can fine tune this band saw like a Swiss watch... Mine cuts perfect, best $1000 I ever spent... My Laguna 14 twelve will pay for itself in one week...

How many amps does this draw in 220v mode?
BEST ANSWER: The motor tag states it draws 7-Amps in 220v mode. I just switched mine over and it works really well. One caveat, the 110-volt accessory outlet is rendered useless in the manual described rewiring for 220v. If you are adept at electrical, getting it back in action is a simple task.

Hi, Can i use this saw to cut 6 inch circular pvc pipe on the length? will it affect the saw in any way?
BEST ANSWER: I see no reason why not. It rips right through hard woods, so pvc would be easy. You might, however, want to use a blade with 10 teeth per inch, and absent an aggressive cut profile. If I needed to make such a cut, I wouldn't hesitate. This is one awesome saw!

what are the main differences between the laguna 14-12 and the 14BX for a home workshop?
Laguna 14|Twelve 14'' Band Saw
BEST ANSWER: I have the Laguna 14BX 110-175. I looked at both but with the differences I like the Laguna 14BX. The main differences from the 14/12 are: weight increased, Solid one-piece frame, Frame is heavier gauge, Magnetic on/off switch, Disc-brake with Micro switch, and dual light mounting positions. I am using it to resaw boards up to 10 inches in width. I like the 14BX. Hope this answers your question.

i would like to purchase, assemble and use the saw without purchasing the mobile base, but i would be open to adding the mobile base later. would it be possible/practical to add the base to an existing, assembled 14/12? or would i basically have to deconstruct the saw to add the mobile base? thanks.
BEST ANSWER: I just added the mobile unit to the base and it was no different that when you initially buy the saw with the exception of taking off the feet by the wheels. I just laid the saw on its frame supported by 2 4x4s at each end of the frame and installed the wheels. The only thing I had help with was standing the saw back up with the wheels on, I didn't want the saw to roll away as I was lifting it. The manual does remind you to also support the motor when you lay it down to keep the saw from rolling towards the motor.

Table height is too low as I am tall. Is there an adapter kit or some idea you may have to raise the table height?
BEST ANSWER: Laguna does not offer any accessory to raise the height, however it would be simple to raise up by mounting a platform under the base

Can this saw actually handle the tension of a 3/4" blade, or do you recommend a 1/2"?
BEST ANSWER: Absolutely. While this is the only quality band saw I have used, and thus can't compare it with other models, the 3/4 tensions nicely and I have experienced no problems. But others may have far more experience with different woods and need for stiffer tension. My only regret is not waiting to buy it. The new brake is nice!

CAN THIS SAW BE MODIFIED TO CUT MILD STEEL TUBING, ETC.?
BEST ANSWER: Since I worked with a lot of steel when I was in the labor force I can see problems with trying to convert a vertical saw to cut the steel. Mostly it will result in filings falling straight down into the bottom drive roller and associated parts. I'm sure it could cut the steel but I feel it would result in premature failure to some of the saw. Cutting steel is normally done with a horizontal saw so the filings can fall straight down away from the saw.

How heavy is the heaviest single piece of this saw? I am trying to figure out if we are capable of getting from the curbside to the back of our yard by ourselves by taking it out of the box piece by piece.
BEST ANSWER: It's pretty heavy. If you're trying to get it to your garage or shop I'd recommending rolling the entire box on top of rollers of some sort. Once you get to your shop, open your box, and you will still have to have a helping hand in setting up the band saw to its upright position. This latter part was the hardest for me and my wife.

moving to France,can i convert from 110 to 220 volts ?
BEST ANSWER: I believe you can. It will entail some rewiring. In the manual it has some diagrams that mention 110 / 220 volts.
You might have to do some digging to get more instructions, or maybe contact Laguna.
I did hear for a utube vid that the extra 110 outlet on the machine will become inoperable unless you did some extra work to convert that also.
Hope this helps, and Enjoy France.

The resaw capacity on this saw is 12", but with the 1.75HP motor, will it slow down at all with a full depth cut, or can it still power through it? I'm assuming that hardwoods would obviously slow it down more than softwoods.
BEST ANSWER: I've used mine to resaw through 10" hardwood, with no problem at all. As with all bandsaws, having the correct blade set to the correct tension is critical, but the saw has adequate power for the job.
