Band saw needs new blade

Open magman2112 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

The blade on startrite bandsaw in laser room doesn’t appear to have many teeth left, so it’s time to get a new blade for this machine.

looking at a previous issue #956, i would suggest that we get another blade from North East Grinding. A 1/2” blade with 24tpi would seem to be the best fit for our current needs like last time.

Hi, I bought a blade for it: STARTRITE 301S BANDSAW BLADE 6.4mm - 1/4" 14 TPI. It was for a specific project (cutting acrylic cylinders), but I ended up not using it at all. I will bring it to DoES tonight.

The blade in the bandsaw looks pretty decent and cut through a thin test piece of MDF with no trouble, so I'm assuming this got swapped.
