I understand the big plus is durability and I don't put enough through the saw to need that level of life I feel. Supertuff without Steel Toe Rubber Boots. I understand it has been taken as low as can be gone - less set seems to behave oddly through the heat treatment so is not a consistent option, I gather (though it may become one, I honestly don't know). The significant point re the test blade though is minimal set. (Note the premium measurement is off my premium blade on the smaller bandsaw, but I believe it is right). Premium 0.5mm the thin-kerf test blade 0.45mm. The actual blade material: Fastcut 0.55mm. TPI: Fastcut - Custom Blade Length (optional): 3380 - Bandsaw Model No. Hi Custard - good day to you (how's the move, bench, and boat no doubt :wink: ) 3/4' - SuperTuff Fastcut 3116mm - 3590mm. If it can rip brilliant veneers etc up to say 6", then for me it is a great blade indeed. But I would say setup is more sensitive (no surprise really) and I have yet to try ripping 11" stock with it - although that wasn't the main plan. On that basis the new test blade achieves almost everything. So I go back to keeping everything about the best blade I can find just as good, but reducing kerf. In a textbook way, absolute efficiency might be zero kerf (a kind of light sabre) and any blade that makes waste is becoming less efficient. Regarding efficiency, I'm not sure how best to define it so judging it is tricky. I would say the fastcut is a little, well, faster (it has the little skip teeth in to help clear swarf and I suspect that makes it work so well on deeper cuts, say 7"+.

Searching for SUPERTUFF products Grainger's got your back. edit: and accuracy of course - a veneer same thickness all over, to 0.1mm.?)Ĭertainly thin kerf alone is not the aim, but if all else stays very good and I get the kerf down then I feel I have gained. The Tuff Saws 'Super Fast-cut' has a small tooth for clearing sawdust in between the main cutting teeth. The 'Highland Wood worker Slicer' is a varying tooth pitch. What I suppose I have been looking at is actual kerf speed of feed and quality of cut. The tooth form of these blades are quite different. Hi Jumps - I'm a bit stuck on the efficiency point, sorry
