I’m looking for the best blade for one task. I will be resawing 6” kiln dried Basswood on a fairly regular basis. Currently I have a 1/2” 3 tpi skip tooth blade that works fine, just slower then I would like. Basswood is “stringy” and seems to “pulse” at times through the cut. I read on threads here that is probably failing to clear the waste, then clearing it, then clogging again.
I do not need a great surface, I’m looking more for speed. The pieces take a ride across the jointer once or twice anyhow after the bandsaw.
My bandsaw is an Italian Laguna HD 16”.
The blade I am using now is fine. I’m more wondering if there is anything faster enough to be worth it?
Thanks.
