Source for bandsaw blades?
The last blades I bought were from Dragon Saws in Wales. Good blades and
excellent service. Unfortunately it appears that they have now gone. Sad, but a sign of the time I suppose. I am looking for blades from 180" x 1.25" x 4tpi to 85" x 5/8" x 8tpi. Several different machines. Can anyone suggest or recommend a good supplier. Have tried axminster, product is not good and range v limited. Thanks, Nick. |

He has yet to get the website up and running but can be contacted at . I have been testing some blades for him and they are certainly up to the old Dragon standard and more. Hope this helps Bob |
