Jet Tools has a long-standing reputation for delivering quality woodworking and metalworking machinery, and their CS-275 and CS-315 bandsaw models exemplify that commitment to excellence. Designed with both professional woodworkers and hobbyists in mind, these saws are engineered to provide precision, power, and ease of use.

The CS-275 features a robust design that includes a heavy-duty cast iron frame providing stability and reducing vibration during operation. This enhances the accuracy of cuts. With a 2.5 HP motor, the CS-275 delivers ample power for most woodworking tasks, enabling users to tackle various materials, from softwoods to hardwoods. Its easy-to-read scale and quick blade change system make blade adjustments seamless. The saw blade can accommodate a range of widths, allowing users to switch between intricate cuts and larger operations without hassle.

On the other hand, the CS-315 takes it a step further with a 3 HP motor, catering to those who need more power for demanding projects.
