Hey members, got my home made Horizontal Bandsaw ( http://ift.tt/1GQIYel ) but l'm trying to source a blade, 4420mm long not sure on width 27mm for starters l suppose.
The rollers it will run through are 10mm x2 wide (20mm), trouble is l need a good blade as there MAY be nails etc in some logs (murphy's), l sent an email to one supplier - they recommended tungsten tip but the price including delivery was close to $260.00.
l don't mind paying for a good blade, but will a a nail etc wreck a T/Tip blade?
Is Bi-metal a better option or perhaps have both, anything iffy use the Bi-metal, clean timber use the T/T.
Carbon blades are about $60, but l'm going to be cutting hard timber, some box, blackwood, redgum, yellow box and Sheoak, l can't see the carbon lasting the distance.
Any suggestion on good suppliers/blades, l know the thread about the motor mentioned blades but were are reasonable suppliers, the $260 blade was from a supplier in Brisbane (name is a bird starting with "P")
I'm not saying they were gouging me - but what is a reasonable blade worth?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Steve
