Title: blades vs wood
Post by: CrossedAnchors on November 15, 2015, 03:01:07 am

Did a search and came up empty. I am a new scroller and wondering if anyone has built a spreadsheet that shows what type/number of blade is recommended for what type of wood.

Attached here is a blade chart from Olson. You can download and print it. They are my favorite  blades, as well as my partner Keith's.

We also have a page on our site with many free articles, videos and even some pattern samples. Newer people find them very helpful.

Have fun with your new journey! :D

Thanks for that chart Sheila.
After almost 15 years of scrolling, I have never see it before. Guess I use the wrong blades :)  but, it is GREAT information for any brand.
I need to print that out for future reference.

Go to: http://mikesworkshop.com/ and click on "Q and A",
It does not only tell you what blade to use but also alot more how to use a blade and what kind.
