    Default Jolly branded guides

    Does anyone know of Jolly bandsaw blade guides? I seem to be drawing a blank.
    These are from my yet-to-be-identified 32" BS - the bearings all need replacing and I managed to put the (what-I-now-know-to-be) aluminium castings into degreaser overnight that has corroded them quite a lot - oops, my bad!

    I'll probably go down the Carter path and replace the lot, but does anyone know of the Jolly brand?
    Cheers

    Thanks for that.

    Sorry, I should have mentioned that I was aware of the ACM brand Jolly BS - but that appears only to be a relatively recent model consumer level 14" BS. As I mentioned in the OP, my BS is a 32" model - details are in this thread:Bandsaw identification help
    And the second link is from a 2001 thread - the relevant post is a reference to Jollys - but nothing more.

    I've done quite a few google searches myself, and the lack of specific information about the guides themselves is the reason for this post.
    I understand most forum members are irritated when someone posts a question that is easily solved by a few simple searches.

    So, I'm looking for advice from someone who has practical knowledge of the guides themselves

    Leanne, if you are going to replace the bearings and nothing else go to CBC bearings in Unanderra and take the old ones with you.

    Thanks Chris. Though I think with the damage to the Al castings, I may be best just to replace the lot.

    I had looked at them before (see comments above re ACM/Jolly site) but kind of dismissed them because of the 'all steel' description - but certainly the components appear similar. So, just did a search on the GL 789 upper guide listed for the STAR 800 model and came up with this site - looks like Conway Woodworking Machinery in the UK supply quite a few Euro manufacturers with their guides including: ACM, Agazzani. Rapid, Cosma, Centauro, Mini Max, Felder, Wadkin, Meber, Panhans, Hermes and Griggio

    Will follow up with them - cheers
