When i bought my bandsaw it was second hand ...well i got it from West Skelston Services it had only been used for demonstration,and not used very often at all, but what i found was that it was very hard to cut straight without running off big time either crosscutting or ripping and i began to wonder if i had bought a duffer!!!,but posted on these forums and got recommended... Dure Edge .now even the thinnest slice ie veneer thickness is no problem at all infact the machine even sounds better when cutting ,give them a try you will not be disappointed,ordered my ones on Monday afternoon arrived Friday morning £18.75 for 4 tpi and 6 tpi icluding vat and delivery so very good prices as well, hope this helps ;-)
