Brand: Grizzly

Works as advertised [Posted on 2005-09-18]
I purchased the Grizzly kit for use on a Ridgid BS1400. Yes, these 14" saws all tend to be very similar. Works great and was one third the price of a Ridgid kit.
Well worth the money [Posted on 2006-05-03]
I purchased this riser block kit at the same time as the saw (Grizzly threw in the shipping on the riser block for free). It shipped quickly and installation could not have been simpler. Though I was able to install it without help, it would definitely be easier with a helper if you have one. All of the necessary parts are included and it took maybe 10 minutes to install. I have made a few 12" resaw cuts and the Grizzly saw handled them well, so this block is definitely well worth adding to your G0555 saw.
Grizzly block fits Ridgid BS1400 [Posted on 2007-04-25]
I bought this block as an alternative to the HIGHLY overpriced ridgid block. It is a direct replacement--fits perfectly with no modification. The blade is junk--just a normal spring steel blade that dulls very quickly. I'm very happy with the riser. As far as the ridgid saw is concerned, I replaced the 3/4HP motor with a 1 1/2HP one to get the power for big resawing. Great item!!
it works [Posted on 2007-12-17]
It works after some hacksawing. The holes drilled into the block don't match up with the little tabs on the saw. Had to file them. This block caused my saw to vibrate like a vegas bed. I cut off the tabs and now the wheels of the saw are back in plane and the vibration is gone. What else can I say, it's a 6" riser. It does what it needs to do after some re-engineering.
Fits Jet Too !! [Posted on 2008-07-11]
I looked at the casting on my Grizzly G0555 bandsaw and was suprised it was identical to the older Jet 14" saw. Don't get me wrong, I am very pleased with my Grizzly, and will use it for most of my work. The Jet is set up for dedicated resaw work. This extension is well worth the money. As you can see by the pictures, it is compatible with other saws.
