    The tires are 7/8"s wide and 12ish" diameter.

    What I meant Ron was, what's the whole process of getting somethng in from the US


    Attached are pics of the bandsaw and guides

    funkychicken, you'll need to know either the brand and model of the bandsaw (if it is a common machine), or a more precise wheel diameter than "12ish". And are you sure they are 7/8? Not 3/4?

    Once you know that, follow the link that I provided earlier. If you don't see the size you requested listed on the seller's page, send a message to the seller requesting a quote for your specific size requirement. He'll then let you know how to place your order.

    You pay using Paypal. The tyres arrive in the mail a few days later.

    Does that answer the question?

    With the blade guides I would take them out and try and get some bronze bar the same diameter. It will do the job quite well and a lot easier the trying to retro fit an aftermarket guide assembly.
    Have a nice day - Cheers

    I have the same saw.
    I just cut a section from a brass bolt and used that for my guides.
    (but even steel will do quite well)

    The tires are 7/8".
    And the urethane tires are supposed to stretch, It won't matter if the wheels are 12 1/4" or something like that.


    What's better, metal guides or rollers? *think I know the answer*


    It's a Durden B1200

    It's a Durden 12", quality stuff!

    Here's the Oopsie...I killed the bottom tire.. Where can i get a new one? Wheel rim diameter is 320mm.


    Also I wanna get new blade guides for it. The top guide up-down bit has a square shaft, 5/8" thick. Where can I get them?

    And is 72 3/4" (I think) a common blade size?

    It's a great little bandsaw and can cut 5" thick hardwood easy

    Hi Funky.
    I recently purchased a new Bandsaw and that company repairs old Bandsaw tyres and probably has some of the other bits.
    Hope it helps you.

    Would they supply new 12" tires?
