Guide blocks have an added advantage over roller bearings when you cut green wood. The wet dust will get packed onto the blade and the bearing surfaces - makes for a loud, rumpety experience. Then you've got to scrape the blade and bearings clean.
Quality Bandsaw Blades?

Yes, I advise any bandsawer to look into using a dremel and chainsaw grindstone. I do the same as you to my Timberwolfs and get quite a life out of them. One could even reset the teeth but I've never gone that far.
Right! *And*, they're like $10 each.

Timberwolf is overpriced trash!
I've bought a few of the industrial and Silicon blades - so far so good. Plus good advice on blade choices and saw set up.
