peewee Posted August 3, 2014 #1 Posted August 3, 2014 HI, I am looking at a few options around additional tooling and came across a minor question. If i was to purchase a small table saw, proxxon/Byrnes et al where in the UK can you purchase quality saw blades? or internationally with minimal trouble/ regards Ian Quote Ian Still Sane? who knows, who cares Current Build Panart deck section
AntonyUK Posted August 3, 2014 #2 Posted August 3, 2014 Hi. There are a few on EBay. If you get a Byrnes saw order a couple of spares. Nice choice of blades for the saw. I am still on my first carbide blade and that's after cutting a mates timber for his build as well. Regards Antony. Quote Best advice ever given to me."If you don't know ..Just ask.

DaveF Posted August 3, 2014 #3 Posted August 3, 2014 I just purchased the 24 tooth saw blade on ebay. All for 10.00 us. I used the 66 tooth for over 2 yrs and no problems. I am hoping the new blade will allow me to cut a little faster and not so rough finish. Oh BTW Shipped same day as I ordered now thats service to me. Dave Quote
gjdale Posted August 4, 2014 #4 Posted August 4, 2014 Ian, Jeff Hayes (of Hobbymill) has posted on his website, a guide to operating the Byrnes saw, including a page on blade selection that also has clear pictures of the Thurston brand blades he uses. Here is a link to that page: http://www.hobbymillusa.com/byrnes-saw-operation-2.php And here is a link to the Thurston website where you can download a catalogue: http://www.thurstonmfg.com/index.html Hope this helps.
