    Anyone use 138" bandsaw blades?

    Amazon has a Trimaster 1" carbide for $37.

    I know this is the wrong forum, but I can't get on the right one and I would hate someone to miss this.

    Dang! I wish I could use that! I need 156.75" for my Hammer N4400.
    If at first you don't succeed, redefine success!

    My wood slicer was in need of replacing so perfect timing.

    At that price perhaps you could pay someone to cut and reweld it to fit a smaller bandsaw.

    Never any good deals on the 196"ers...

    They have some good deals on 2" bands, but those are too big even for me.

    OK, buy two, cut and reweld to make on longer blade?

    That's another good idea.

    But they actually they had one longer than 196 inches, in 1.25 x .042 gauge, something I can handle. Came to about $60.

    When I get my current bands sharpened, I'll have it shortened. Great! Thanks for the heads up.

    I couldn't find that deal on Amazon. Would someone post a link, please?

    Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.

    Only certain sizes are discounted.

    I poked around and found a bimetal blade I could use for $13. It is now $79. I wish I had poked around yesterday; there were probably more bargains. Oh well, I got one.
    Good Luck.
