Odd Bandsaw Blade size 80'

| HotRod 2005-06-17, 11:33 pm |
| This summer I purchased a used Craftsman bandsaw only to find out recently
when I went to purchase blades that no one carries my saw blade size. I was
wondering if anyone could recommend someone in Canada or Ontario that
carries 80 inch blades, I want a mix of wood as well as some really fine 30+
tpi for cutting thin aluminium.
THANKS

have bandsaws.

Many online sources--amazon is one place to start. Of course, Sears has
blades for these as well.

Woodworker's Supply (www.woodworker.com) is another...but I don't know
you'll find a source for such really fine tooth thingies
pre-made...won't say you can't, but I don't know where to tell you to
look.

| Believe it or not I tried Sears but they need to special order from the US
and I have a very, very limited selection. I will try the other news group
if it's available.

| Hot Rod....no need to look too hard... Go to a welding shop and ask themn
where they get there bulk saw blades from. In most cases they buy band saw
blades in bulk lengths. They cut the length they need and silver solder them
together. I am in the welding trade and have done it many times. Jim

| Start with the saw sharpening shops in your area. They buy the stuff by the
roll and cut it to fit.

About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then
they come up with this striped stuff.

How bad do they hit you to ship to Canada? www.sears.com has a
pretty good selection of 80" blades.

| Try Dominion Saw (Mississauga?) and Princess Auto (all over). Have a
look in the back of Canadian woodworking and Do it yourself magazines.
