Hello from North Dakota.  Finally put  away the mower  in time to take out the snow blower.
 These are the best "all weather friends" anyone can find.

Thanks everyone, I just got home from driving a 1 1/2 to go pick up my new saw, It runs smooth & quiet so after i get a few things in order I'll be ready to let the saw dust fly.

Why thank you sir,  I am just getting started too.  My only "quirk" is that I use all spiral blades.

lol i haven't used any blades so far, my saw is in my garage/work shop and its very cold here, brrrrrrrrrrrr.....i need to insulate it i recon. what is the difference in the regular blades and the spiral blades?

somebody else can probably explain it better, but a spiral blade has teeth all the way aroung so it cuts in all directions. You don;t need to turn the piece as much.

I have been watching Steves video's and im really interested in cutting puzzles, any suggestions on the blades that i will need to cut them?
Title: Re: Hello From Kentucky
Post by: julief on November 24, 2010, 01:24:56 pm
Depends entirely on how thick and how much detail is in the puzzle.   On 3/4" stand up puzzles, I usually use a #5 reverse tooth, on 1/4" puzzles, I use Flying dutchman superior puzzle blades.  those work very well for photo puzzles.

Ok Thank you, I just got back in from my shop from cutting a few pieces of wood just to try out my saw and noticed that i have a quick release for my blades and was trying to figure out what type it was, It has a little finger tab on it and works great< heres is a couple pictures of it so hopefully someone can tell me what brand it is,
