I had a bunch of blades I made at work. We bought the blade on a 50 or 100 ft roll, and there was a welder and grinding wheel built into each DoAll bandsaw, so we could make any length. When I added a 6" riser to my saw so they were a foot too short. I don't remember the length or even if I have any left, but if you give me a size I'll root around the cellar and see.

I don't know if Franny really said this, but I like it.

4/24/16 Sunday afternoon I had an hour or two.
I mostly just straightened up the shop. The wheels are basically done. I'm going to put the tires on them before I balance them, and the tires (14 inch inner tubes) are coming this week some time. But I put away my wheel turning station and swept the floor, put tools away, etc. I was all out of empty horizontal surfaces and needed room to work. But I did make some progress. I had an old bed frame I dug out of the neighbor's trash. It's made of nice thick maple, used as a secondary wood, with some sort of tropical hardwood in the showy places. I tore off that tropical hardwood years ago, and it splintered badly so I threw it away. But I had these nice maple bed frames. I need a big hunk of wood to be the top bearing block, and it's a very intricate shape. So I cut up part of my bed frame and glued it up into a nice block. I wish I had a thickness planer. It would be easier to do this stuff. It was getting to be dinner time so I stopped there. I'll make all the intricate cuts next time. Last edited by glatt; 04-26-2016 at 11:48 AM. |
