Bandsaw Blade Storage Idea

[LeftyTom]

After my recent lighting remodel, I had this "valence" left over. This idea popped into my head to use it as storage for the 4 bandsaw blades I currently have. I should have at least 1/2" space between each blade.

The 3/4" blade is used to model my idea, in the attached pic.

Any feedback?

you dont just recoil them?

Yep, I always do the "coil them under the sole of your shoe" thing and then they take up relatively little space. I don't keep many bs blades on hand though.

Coil +3

I use that method currently. The idea does away with the “coil and stack”, as possibly a time saver when changing blades.

Coil + 4! The only problem is if you cut your fingers. Other than that, a huge space saver!

I watched YouTube until I could figure out how to coil the blade. I take the twist tie off and toss it on the floor to uncoil it. I store them on a hook.
