Using Google to check out reviews of lo-end Chinese aluminum foil machines by Clarke, Warco etc that sell for around £300GBP/$400USD suggests that they leave a lot to be desired. As a recently retired guy with arthritis, I find portable bandsaws and Sawzall-type cutting of 50mm stock not very easy or accurate: I end up using a carbide 25mm face mill to finish the job for me.
So, I'm looking for a decent machine, new or in good used condition. I could afford about £500GBP max.
Something called the Holzmann bs128 looks like it fits the bill but I haven't been able to find any reviews. There are a couple of clips on YouTube of it in action, but with no commentary. Anyone know if it's any good, or could suggest alternatives to consider?
Cheers,
Gareth.
