bandsaw carter quide or equivalent

I kinda want to piddle around w/ my 1/8" blade on the BS.

With my stock Jet 14" guides, it's just not working -- blade can pop
out past the side quides.

Anyone know where to get an inexpensive Carter guide -or- is there a
knock-off that works good?

sounds reasonable; is this by own experience?

Use blocks made of hardwood and trap the blade (i.e. adjust the blocks
to surround the blade and let the blade's kerf provide its own
clearance).

Yes, with a Grizzly G1019 bandsaw.
