Bandsaw blades 80'?

This summer I purchased a used Craftsman bandsaw only to find out recently
when I went to purchase blades that no one carries my saw blade size. I was
wondering if anyone could recommend someone in Canada or Ontario that
carries 80 inch blades, I want a mix of wood as well as some really fine 30+
tpi for cutting thin aluminium.

THANKS

Or you might want to try http://www.ebandsawblades.com . Same blades, same price, but with online ordering.

I agree. I have called them plenty in the past. Now that I know what I need, It is often more convenient to use online ordering.
I always seem to forget to call during normal business hours.

Contact a local saw blade maker, they can make you blades very easily. Also
there are many blade makers avaliable on-line. DAGS

Sounds simple but can you get to Sears? They still sell them. You could
order from them online too.

Try http://www.tufftooth.com/. I've ordered from them in the past, and had
good luck. They will make a blade any size you need.

You can also try www.leevalley.com. They have 80" blades for the Sears
machines.

Both of these companies are in Ontario.

I can get 80" blades for my Sears 12" at sears, woodcraft, and the farm
store locally, and I've seen them at several online places.
