WTB Broken band saw blade

Jan 15, 2007 10 Replies

I have a powder coating shop and we use 36" wide brown paper to wrap our parts up after finishing. I have built a holder for the paper and need a blade to cut it with that I can tack onto the cutting bar. Anyone got 37" of broken blade they could sell me. All the teeth must be there so as to cut the paper neatly. Johnnie


Um.... why would you waste time doing that? A new carbon blade of the

64-1/2" variety would cost only eight or ten bucks at any local tool shop. You could have your cutter up and working this afternoon.

Sure, will 1 1/4" pitch be a problem?

Hey Roy, take your chill drugs! Not having a band saw, I had no idea they were that cheap. Good idea, bad attitude!

Careful, Grant. Your heart is likely to jump right out of your chest with your very "generous" offer.

Hello MD; I work in a supermarket and the guys in the meat dept go through bandsaw blades on a regular basis. Might want to check with the local market. They usually toss them when dull. Pat

My guess would be the blades are too coarse in pitch to serve well for tearing paper. I can envision something line an 18 or 24 pitch blade for this particular application, assuming I understand how it would be used.
