Another source to make custom band saw lengths is your local vocational tech school or Industrial Technology Department at a University. Most have industrial band saws with the blade welder and anneling attachment to teach the students. Just contact the department or the Industrial tech student club. Of, course, You have to supply the length of saw blade, and a student will weld it up. The students will almost always help you out for 'Donation' to their club. About 30 years ago, I and 3 other guys spent a Saturday morning welding up some blades for a blacksmith shop. It paid for our clubs homecomming float.
