I have a cheapo Titan bandsaw from ScrewFix - added a decent blade and did a bit of surgery on the bit that adjusts the height of cut - can now do just over 90mm. Also watched a couple of YouTube vi...

I’ve fretted 4 necks with a hammer so far - never tried a press - hammer is very simple and quick....
