Where to buy continuous blade

2878 forum posts 248 photos | Some time ago, I bought 2 packs of continuous blade of different tpi. I make the blades by feathering the ends and silver soldering the joints. I seem to have a lot of friends who like my home made blades, but now I can't find a cheap source of the continuous blade. Any ideas ?? (besides not helping my friends). |

![]() 304 forum posts 28 photos | I also make my own & I've not seen many cheap redundant stock rolls[I'm allways on the look out] most of what I've bought is from auto jumbles, I got a roll last week for £25 3/4" x100ft, starrett I'll get 12 blades out of that so it works out @ just over £2.00 a blade as opposed to machine mart price about £11.69.each but as you say there doesn't seem to be much about. |
