Oh man, I love it! I don't have any metal working tools but I wonder if I could use HDPE instead of aluminum. On my wooden bandsaw I just made, I took Matthias Wandel's recommendation and made the insert in a rectangular shape so it is far easier to replace.

Re: Bandsaw problems
The best solution I've come up with is to make my own. I will try to add photos. I bought the plans from Matthias Wandel http://woodgears.ca/bandsaw/homemade.html I altered mine to be set up primarily for re-sawing. I can re-saw up to 11.5" and it has a 15.5" throat. I am still working out the bugs....
