I've got a customer that has the 10" Ryobi Bandsaw that takes a 67" blade. He is wondering if it is possable to find metal cutting bladeds for it. All we have in stock at HD are 4 and 6 tooth models. I can't find any 67" bladeds that i'm able to get through HD so i've resorted to trying the internet to see if they are out there. I found several places that'll custom weld band saw blades to 67" but i'm having a hard time finding blades pre-done. The closest i can find are 67 1/2" from places like woodcraft and the such.

My question is: in a bandsaw that takes a 67" blade will a 67 1/2" blade be made to fit. Are there any other bandsaw blade resources that you guys, the more experianced, use? Also what width blade is recommended for metal cutting?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure that Suffolk Saw will make any lenght BS blade you want. They sell the Timber Wolf line of blades which are top shelf. http://www.ebandsawblades.com/
