Drill size for blade

Yeah, I can't tell you how many times I've saved this chart to my computer and then can't find it.. I've printed it and hung it in my shop and totally forget it's there.. When I need it can't find it.. You would think after 20 years of scrolling I'd know all of them by now. 

Years ago the blade sellers listed the recommended bit for said blade ( Mikesworkshop.com still does ) and that is when I started just going to the website in which I bought the blades and look at the blade style & size and use the recommended bit.. However, now days the sellers of the blades figure we all should know this or have a chart handy.. which I do have a chart handy.. it's hanging in my shop as well as somewhere on my computer.. I just can't find them as easy as I can go to the site I buy the blades from and look.. Many times I'm in the shop instead of the house where the computer hard drive has the info.. Easier for me to set on at my saw and grab my phone to go to the website where the blades were purchased.. Except I switched to Pegas blades and since D & D sawblades took down the site no one else has that info easily to find.. just like the ones I have downloaded on my computer, 😂 Thinking I just need to go back to FD blades.. 

The one issue I also find is this drill size is not consistent with each blade manufacture. (ie a FD #5 UR will fit in a #60 but a Pegas MFG #5 will not so it's blade specific. ) IF they was standard sized across the brands then I'd probably have it memorized.. The issue is I use some FD, Olsen, Pegas, and Sharktooth brand blades depending on my project.🤣
