Deep Cuts

The Sherwood 18in HD delivers a full 483mm depth of cut and 444mm throat. Matched with the powerful 3000W 4HP motor, you can now complete deep rips and block work effortlessly.

Cast iron wheels

Cast wheels are heavier. And if the wheels are heavier, you will have more inertia. This is great when handling peak loads on the blade. In other words, the heavier wheels will help get you through the toughest of cuts.

Sturdy rip fence

Want to rip? No worries, the Sherwood 18in HD features a sturdy rip fence as standard. This fence features two T track slots and a quick-lock handle. The fence is can be removed and stored to make full use of the whole worktable.

Cast worktable with mitre slot

The mass of the cast iron worktable reduces vibration and allows you to use magnetic accessories. The mitre slot is a full size at 19 x 9.5mm. Perfect for using the included mitre slide, a cross-cut sled or installing feather boards and other accessories.

Blade quick release

The blade quick release mechanism has two key functions. First, it helps to speed up the process of changing out your blades. Second, it lets you quickly flip off the tension when heading home for the day. This eliminates the chance of your wide rip blades developing a memory and causing unwanted vibration.

Twin dust ports

The Sherwood 18in HD features two 102mm dust ports. One is located at the base of the machine, the other just below the worktable and lower blade guides. This keeps both the interior of your bandsaw and the floor of your workshop dust free.
