Post by: Nbmartin on April 25, 2021, 11:49:36 am

Best blade for cutting 2/4s. Making toy cars. I usually use Flying Dutchman blades.

Greetings!
My go to blade on everything is a #5 Ultra reverse.
I can cut anything from 1/8" to 2" x 4" with a #5 blade.
A lot of people seem to prefer smaller blades but, that is my preference.
When I cut 1/8" material, I usually stack cut at least two pieces for better
control.
God Bless! Spirithorse

I use ultra reverse and Pega sMG usually #3 the the pegas last longer but ultra reverse has a cleaner cut Iwhen I cut 1/8 BB i stack it as control is easier and I seldom run my saw over 1/4 speed. First one gets good then gets fast is what i was told
