As for making up a lifetime supply of blades before moving --
consider that the bulk is a lot greater than a spool of blade stock.
And do you really know how many blades you will need in your lifetime?


Oh, I was really kidding on that one... Yeah, plan to take several 100'
rolls in varying pitches.


Also -- the bandsaw will run slower, too -- though if it is a
variable-speed one, you should be fine.


Plan for this is a 1/2hp 3ph motor w/inverter I can run from single
phase 220.
