Thread: Bandsaw blade guides

that would be Carter Products
sounds like the guides etc will be stocked at Trend
he certainly made that bandsaw sing - a good show

HI Wongo,
I have never bought Guides for my 14in. Saw.
You make them yourself from Lignum Vitae ? or Red Gum, etc & they work as good as anything you can buy.
You just keep turning them around.
You could soak them in some oil.

I did the same with my old saw. I used jarrah. They worked better than the metal block guides and the saw ran quieter
Regards
John

Trend are the NSW agents and we will be the victoian agents.

The make any bandsaw into a rolls royce.

The sherwood bandsaw they had there had never cut so good.

The noise from the bearing was also very minimal and the stup was brilliant.

Jim, where is it on your website?

Found it - Band Saw Products by Carter Products

Opps - Sorry just re-read what you wrote Wongo; you were asking for the info on the Carrol's website....

I was very impressed with the Stabiliser like this one. I am trying to figure out if it fits my CT 17"

Grizzly 16" by Carter Products

The website is Benchmark Quality Tools for Carter Products in Australia & New Zealand, and we can help with any enquiries. We are currently exhibiting at the Perth Wood Show, so I hope you can excuse a slight delay in any replies.

We pretty much sold out of all the Stabilizer's in Sydney, and have only just today received our next shipment. Carroll's and Trend should have stocks early next week.

If you have a band saw and aren't sure of whether or not we can fit suitable guides, please contact us and we can make sure you get the right fit.

Thanks for all the support at the show. Alex Snograss in particular felt a bit like a rock star!

It is Carter Products Company e-mail Band saw blades, wheels, guides, and parts from Carter Products
I have there spec's on the blade guides if you want them?

I got to Bandsaw parts; Band Saw Parts for Marvel, Doall, Hydmech and Hem Band saws; We specialize in Marvel 8 Bandsaws for replacement band saw parts. They cater guides for different brands.

It was a very impressive demo at the show.

I grabbed the Benchmark list from Rockstar Alex.

I'll get a set for my bandsaw when I get power to the new shed.
I know where Trend are!

Just started to load up on the web site. Carter Bandsaw Accessories

Give me a week or so to get the rest of the info up there.

We have had confirmation from Stephen that he will be part of our stand at the Melbourne Timber and Working with Wood Show on October 19-21 so come along and see what the fuss is all about.

Was at Trend on Wednesday - have quite a few Carter Products boxes in the showroom.
Give Adrian a call - I am sure he can help.

I managed to get "Big Al" to make me a couple of reindeer to bring home!
Even managed to video him making one.

Gave him one of my "see through" turned bowls to take home (it was his birthday on the saturday of the show).
