I'm not a machinist. I've never owned a ban saw. My 1st scroll saw and used. Even new I'd have to buy blades. You will too. These older saws have no pin. This pack/s are the correct length, divided up to their tooth count and worked perfect. I'm learning the art of scroll cutting
After confirming with Foxbc that their belt would fit my 5 rib pulley setup on my machine I ordered it. I was sent a 6 ribbed belt. When I contacted FoxBC to get the correct belt I was informed to cut one rib off, this could unbalance the belt and lead to other issues. The email I received is below.
Hello.
Thanks your order and email.
please not worry, first please check the belt long are correct.
we with check, it is same long, you only need cut off 1 ribbed, so it is work to you.
thanks your understand.
Best regards
Everyone knows the blades are great, but the shipping from China was unbelievable fast, it made a lot of U.S. vendors look like they don't care once they have your payment.
They came within 10 days and well packaged.
They seem like the original Dewalt blades but very affordable comparing the originals. They do look straight and sharp.
I have not use them yet but for the looks it seems a good buy.
Have not had the chance to change these blades so I can't give you my say at this time. I will let you know when I get the chance.

Ordered the wrong blades, and they were very helpful in getting the correct ones. Received the replacements in a very short time.
My planer blades arrived in perfect condition and completely solved my problem. The problem was that Sears discontinued this product long ago and the blades were no longer available domestically. Very glad to have this niche available. The only negative is it took a long time for the blades to be delivered.
The blades i received were the wrong thickness, i need 16th inch. I want to send them them .125 back and swap them for the correct item.
Fit just right and seem to be sharp. Took awhile to ship, but other than that, the price was right and the quality is good so far
I've ordered these a few times for our planer. They're a pain in the ass to install, not because of the blades but because Dewalt makes replacing blades a 25 minute process involving the removal of about 50 screws. The blades themselves do a great job, and when one side is worn out, you can flip them to get another round of use out of them. Overall, the blades seem to last between 6-8 months on our planer, with almost daily use. Very hard woods like ipe or certain mahoganies will definitely dull them quickly, though.
Have not had a bad experience with foxbc blades yet. Great blades for the money.
