For kicks, I looked up the MSDS for Supergleit.
It is listed as 50-100% aliphatic hydrocarbons and 25-50% white mineral oil.
I have no clue how this helps anybody, but I'm 150% sure that the sum of the numbers defies logic.
It can be purchased on UK Feldershop. Doesn't come up in the US Feldershop search, although Erik might know if it's available. I'm thinking that lots of lubricants could accomplish the same thing. The lesson may be to clean the blade and make sure it's lubricated. Julie's results sure seem to pan that out.
I can get over 25K on my Felder FB710 on a 1" blade, but never tried larger. I have thought that is my saw's practical limit.
The thickest I have tried is 12" sapele which it resawed quite well, but it also has a 5.5HP 3-phase motor, so a different kind of beast.
I also think there is no way that your saw could get to 25K on a 1-1/4" blade. Ah, advertising...
