I m not a maker but I cut and carve tons of fossil mammoth ivory and whale bone. The products that I seem to use the most are super glue and band saw blades.I have found two companys that supply these at a very good price.The first is Pro Band Saw Works in California. They can make any size(mine takes 11 foot 8 inch and costs $11 ).A 93 1/2 for a delta is from $6 to $9.With a phone call they will be made and shipped the same day There number is 1-800-657-7622. the other company is C P H Int. A 16 OZ bottle of high quality glue is $28.Pauls number in L A is 213-382-7788. I have delt witht these guys for years and find them the best.
