Title: Found a nail, need a good blade doctor
Post by: sdN8ive on November 29, 2017, 10:23:37 PM

Was milling some nice white pine, and forgot to check for metal...so of course the blade found it. Chipped the carbide teeth pretty deep. I sharpened out as much as possible, but going to need new teeth brazed on soon. Who is good...D&L saw, 25 inch-ish blade diameter, 6 teeth...located in Southeast Kentucky, so close would be nice, but quality work is most important...thanks

No idea but I'd sure have a couple of spare blades on hand. Steve

I shipped my blades to Menominee for new tips and tension check.

Does D&L make a retip kit like the Lucas?

Menominee Saw (FF Sponsor) does this type of work.

Here's a place in Missouri some of my blades were re-tipped and balanced at:
21 Saw Shop & Mfg Co
Hc 2 Box 2538, Van Buren, MO 63965
(573) 323-8585
You'd have to contact them and pay for shipping to and from.

I've sent mine to BHPayne, at a Northport, AL location.
