Are you willing to mail your blades somewhere?  Hayes Grinding Service has been in business since 1870 (yes, that's an 18 and not a 19!) and they sharpen/hone/grind anything and everything.  Cheap too!  They just sharpened an 80-tooth carbide saw blade for my table saw for only $18.  They sharpen band saw blades, but I don't know how much they charge.  The problem for you is that they are in Detroit.  If you can't find anyone in driving distance and would have to ship them out anyway, I would suggest checking them out.

The Wood-Miser Resharp program looks like a good deal for me. I am calling them to get an account tomorrow.

Thank you all for the valuable and entertaining replies. I especially enjoyed the "where in the hell is North Fork/Moss Landing". I will edit my profile to remedy my vagueness.

If The WM blade exchanged does not work out Cooks also has a blade sharpening service and makes blades for most mills. I am able to get my blades sharpened locally so I have never used the service but I like Cooks blades. Price is a little better than WM but not much.

There is a place here in Oregon that sharpens for .85 cents a foot. They also do the set as well.  It might be closer (less shipping cost) than the other places named here.
They have been in business since 1978.  I spoke with them yesterday as they come highly recommended.  Hopefully it's o.k. to post links here (I have no affiliation with this business). If not I apologize ahead of time if I've broken protocol.

$11 a band plus shipping seems high?

If you need some help with milling questions, I found the "Mother Lode of Answers".

Thanks to all of The Forestry Forum moderators, members and sponsors.
