Is buying tools a hobby or an addiction? Since I am struggling with the decision on which 8" or 12" jointer to buy (8" Yorkcraft, 8" Yorkcraft with byrd cutter head, 12" grizz J/P, 12" J/P with shelix cutterhead), I decided to postpone that purchase and pick up a 14" bandsaw in Delaware. For someone starting on a bandsaw and looking to cut bowl blanks and general purpose work which blades would be recommended? Someone I saw was recommending taking advantage of the Suffolk 5 blade sale for $75. Do I need that many blades to start and is it necessary to replace bandsaw blades frequently?
