Incra Rules, Precision Marking T-Rule
I really like the my precision rules from Incra. I have a 6", a 12", and a 3" 'T' rule, and a 6" regular rule. I use the 6" the most since the extra 6 inches on the 12" can get in the way if you do not need them.
6-Inch Riser Block
Most 14" bandsaws have a 6" resaw capacity. You can do quite a bit with this 6", but eventually you will have a need to go beyond 6". You can save some bucks by adding a riser block to your bandsaw instead of buying a larger bandsaw. It will give you 12" of resaw capacity. I am not so sure about using the full 12" due to the low power of many 14" bandsaws, but I regularly use over 6" on mine. (I think my 14" Delta is 1-3/4 horses.) Don't forget that your old blades will no longer fit; you will need 105" blades. This one is for the Jet (I cannot find the Delta for some reason.) Powermatic and Grizzly also offer risers.
