Will the band saw blades from Inland work on the Gryphon machine? An old Gryphon blade measures 37.75". Inland claims their's are 37.7".
I just saw Inland sells a metal blade and need to cut some German silver for a project.

Blades are the same size but unless you use the metal blade wet you will melt the bands on your pulleys. I sell a lot of Gryphon diamond blades to Inland owners.

Thanks John.
I had originally considered just sending you an email. However, I thought the information might be useful for someone else.
BTW - I really like the Fuser blade I got from you in Tucson. It works much better than the standard blade.

Cuts more aggressively and easier to get a straight line. Harder to get small radius curves though. Byu the way, I stock the Inland metal and wood blades if you still need one when I see you next (Farmington, Durango?).

Hey John,
I'll order the band saw blade in a few weeks. I got side-tracked this week trying to finish my grinder project.

I am looking for Delta 28-400 14 in. 1 HP Steel Frame Band Saw. I want to know whether its a good buy or not. I got its reference from here in which they say its Best Bandsaw under $1000. My budget is low. I want a good Band Saw that last long. It has two-speed operation feature The oversized tables has flexibility of 45 degrees Looking good. Any suggestion.
