Hello All,
I recently acquired a dual arbor table saw. One arbor will be used for ripping (flat top grind), and the other arbor will be used for cross cutting. The blades on this saw will be 16" in diameter. Changing blades on this saw will not be a picnic, so I would like one cross cutting blade for all my cross cutting needs. In addition, I have an odd arbor size (1 1/8 inches), so any blade I get will need to be modified to accept the larger arbor.
On this saw, I will normally be cutting solid wood, 1/2 to 3 inches thick (maximum), but I may run the occasional piece of ply through it as well.
If you had to choose one "perfect" blade or grind in these circumstances, what would it be?
Thanks
