They're not cheap, but if you want bearing guides, Carter Products has them for the Shopsmith Bandsaw:

I saw that Ohio's stay at home order was just extended to May 29th, so it might be another month before Shopsmith is shipping again...

Manufacturing, distribution, construction and "general office environments" in Ohio will be permitted to open May 4, subject to maintaining "social distancing", face masks, etc.

Good news! I only saw the general order which was vague with little details.
