Blade length - Josh1985 - 02-28-2021

I got a toolstar 10” bandsaw from my grandad when he passed but it has no blades. Can someone tell the length of blade I need please?

I don’t know that saw but you should be able to get a length by running a tape measure around the wheels as if it were a blade and see where it starts to overlap.

Do with the wheels at minimum distance, then add a ~3/8 for ease of putting the blade on.  If you use a cloth tape measure as in sewing measure, it'll keep the kinks out of your steel one.
