Plywood Blade: Used for cutting plywood or veneers. 10" plywood blades have 40-80 teeth (Figure 28), a steep alternate top bevel tooth pro- file (Figure 30) and very shallow gullet.

Figure 28. Plywood blade.

Thin-kerf:Designed for saws with smaller motors and for reducing material waste, thin-kerf blades are thinner than standard blades. Performance and accuracy can be maintained by the use of blade stabilizers.

Some blade guards/splitters are thicker than thin-kerf blades. DO NOT use the thin- kerf blade if this is the case or serious per- sonal injury could result.

Dado Blades: There are two types of dado

blades: stacked and wobble.

¥Stacked Dado BladeÑThese dedicated dado cutting blades consist of a set of up to 8 indi- vidual blades. Multiple cutters are "stacked" between two outside blades. The width of the dado is determined by the combination of cut- ters that are ÒstackedÓ together. The dado is cut in a single pass leaving a smooth and square channel in the face of the workpiece as shown on Page 32. Stacked dado blades are the most expensive option but are worth considering if your projects require a lot of visible dado cuts. A typical stacked dado blade is shown in Figure 29.

Figure 29. Optional dado blade.

¥Wobble Dado BladeÑAlso a dedicated dado blade, a wobble blade usually consists of a sin- gle blade that is tilted on the arbor shaft while it is spinning. The channel is cut in the face of the workpiece as the blade passes through its pre- adjusted width of travel. Wobble blades are an inexpensive option when visibly pleasing chan- nels are not a concern.

Moulding Heads: A moulding head is a cutter- head that attaches to the arbor and holds individ- ual moulding knives. They should only be used by professional woodworkers with training beyond the scope of this manual.

This section on blade selection is by no means comprehensive. Always follow the saw blade manufacturer's recommendations to ensure safe and efficient operation of your table saw.
