Hi all, I have a band saw that I've been slowly trying to get back in working order. It is a Taiwanese clone of the Delta model and is probably 15 years old or so, but the motor runs fine. It just needs a lot of the little parts replaced, as they have either rusted or worn down.
I'm wondering what sort of blade guides to get. I've looked through the Iturra Designs catalog and it looks like there are 3 interesting choices:
1. Band-Rollers (most expensive, but look pretty slick)
2. Ceramic Guides (much less money than band-rollers)
3. Cool Blocks (least expensive)
I'd appreciate any feedback about whether the band-rollers are worth the extra $50 or so that they cost over the other guides. Thanks in advance!
