Have seen TK and NW but no real experience. Neighbor’s TK cut funny lumber but it might have been the operator.
Spent a winter helping some old timers on a WM, ‘90s LT40 hydraulic in good condition. Had the usual bandsaw maintenance tasks and it took some adjustment morning and mid-day to keep it cutting right. The little circular blade-option that runs in front of the band to chip out a clean spot worked well. We moved to new locations at least once a week - it towed fine and was easy to set up and level.
A neighbor bought the little LT15 push mill and did a surprising amount of milling with it.
