Bandsaw blades! lost
Ok I have a Rexon BS3050AL bandsaw, in the manual it tells me it uses a
2312mm blade length, i'm trying to get some blades for it when I look on www.screwfix.com, it gives me blades in inches, now here is my problem, unless my math has went tits up my blade length is 91" or there about, that can't be right, for a bandsaw with a cut helght of just under 6 inches, there is no way it uses a 91 inch blade! it is not even tall enought to use a 91inch blade, could some kind soulu go onto screwfix and point me in the right direction, of which size blade that would fit.? Thanks Eddy |

In comparison, the Delta 14" bandsaw uses a 93 1/2" blade. It also has a 6" cut height. The 91" is the total length of the blade, not the height of your bandsaw. |

http://www.cherrytreetoys.com/store/...6&pagenumber=1 I have bought some blades from them and think they are reasonable prices. Have not tried them out yet though.

Thanks Eddy Eddy, another source of blades might be your local "Yellow Pages." I have a friend of mine who goes to his local cutting machine supplier and has them make him up a blade, whenever he needs one. Just a thought. Deb |
