So, I am about to set up this little saw here:
http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00921400000P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1
I didn't want to buy Craftsman products anymore, but this one seems to get decent reviews and I only need it to cut small blocks or boards into handle blanks, so I hope it will do. But I also heard I should get better blades, and these seen to have an awkward size. So, can anybody recommend brands and/or a place to buy blades? And what would you recommend in terms of blades. I was thinking 1/2" with something like 12tpi? I am hoping to avoid frequent blade changes and find something that will get me through woods of different hardness and maybe even an occasional stabilized block.
Thanks,
Stefan
