Suggestions for bimetal bandsaw blades for HF 4x6?
#8
That's very nice rleete. I silver braze together my own wood bandsaw blades (an old 24" throat Duplicarver 3-wheeler) from bulk 4tpi skip tooth stock, but buying Starrett blade stock is out of the question -- their blades also.

But I'm also just a hobbyist. I think I've gone through 3 Lennox metal cutting blades in 7 years. If these Imachine brand blades last a year at my rate of cutting, that would still be okay.

I have bought Timberwolf blades for my sawmill for years, rather than make them up, and they seem cheap by comparison with blades for my smaller bandsaws. It's been awhile since I bought them but they were $20 for a thirteen footer, and a lot more metal in those big 1TPI blades.

ps. I cancelled the 14tpi stainless blade from Imachine/Amazon delivery was 2 months on that one. The rest should come fairly quick.
