 Works in a 14" Craftsman bandsawOct 15, 2004
By Joe's hobby workshop
Easy installation and perfect fit in a 14" Craftsman bandsaw. It is not, however, color matched, except probably to a green Grizzly bandsaw, but does anyone really care? This riser block will probably fit other Taiwan imports. Well packed and shipped immediately by Grizzly. If you need to bump up the resaw capacity to 12" this is the perfect solution for not a whole lot of money. Best to buy this before stocking up on additional blades as this modification will make the original 93 1/2" ones obsolete, requiring 105" blades instead. This kit does ship with one OEM quality blade to get you started.

Works as advertisedSep 17, 2005

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 moneyMay 03, 2006

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.

Fits Jet Too !!Jul 11, 2008
By K. Hopper
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.

 Grizzly block fits Ridgid BS1400Apr 24, 2007
By Nate
"aquan8tor"
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!!
