    Darlene: I recently bought a Taurus 3 band saw--I use it for cutting
    glass (my latest venture into Stained Glass) and haven't used it yet
    for metal.  I bought it from a Stained Glass supply house When I had
    some problems with it at first, I called Gemini directly and
    received very helpful and considerate service.  For minor problems I
    am able to take it back to the place at which I bought it, and get
    some help.  

    The main problem I had with it was pushing the blade too hard--so
    eventually it jumped the tracks.  I got it back on pretty easily,
    with some help from the booklet, and since then have learned to let
    the machine tell me how fast it wants to go. 

    I am very happy with it, and think it will work well with stones and
    rocks, I really do not know about metal.  The only minor downside is
    that the water needs to be emptied any time it will not be used for
    a few days, because it can damage the parts that are under water. 
    Other than that, I believe the Taurus 3 is somewhat quieter than the
    2. 

    I hope this helps
