The Delta 14” Bandsaw with Riser Block expands your cutting height to 12 inches for resawing thick lumber with precision. Using a 105” blade and supporting widths from 1/8″ to 3/4″, it’s ideal for furniture makers and woodworkers needing extra capacity. Built on Delta’s durable round-post frame, it offers smooth blade tracking, reliable performance, and clean cuts in hardwood or softwood projects.
Expanded Resaw Capacity: Adds 6" of cutting height, increasing total resaw capacity to about 12" — perfect for thicker boards, panels, and large turning blanks.
Blade Compatibility: Uses a longer 105" saw blade and accepts widths from 1/8" to 3/4" for a full range of woodworking applications.
Cast-Iron Riser Block: Heavy-duty cast-iron or steel construction ensures rigidity and frame alignment after installation.
Guide Post Extension: Includes a longer guide post adapter to properly position upper blade guides after adding height.
Stable Round-Post Design: Delta’s traditional round-post frame maintains smooth tracking, reduced vibration, and long-term reliability.
Easy Installation Kit: Typical riser sets include the block, extended blade guard, guide post, hardware, and one 105" starter blade.
Ideal for Upgrades: Enables a standard Delta 14" bandsaw to handle taller projects without requiring a larger floor-standing model.
