Hi,
I'm working with white oak and I'd like to attach two pieces end to end. Thought was to cut a miter cut on each board to increase glue surface area and add dowel rods to further help with glue surface area.
I was hoping to cut the boards with my miter saw, however I've noticed some deflection in the blade before. Is there a good 12" blade / 1" arbor that is stiff enough to avoid deflection? This cut needs to be accurate. I just have my 'came with the saw' blade on it now.
The oak cross section is 7" x 1.5". Top of the piece is wider (7") and height of the piece is 1.5", In other words, the miter will need to be made by tilting the head of the saw.
My saw: Bosch 12" compound (GCM12SD)
Thoughts on blade that will reduce deflection or different method? Also have dado blades for the TS, could do something else entirely I suppose.
Cheers,
