dgman Posted December 15 Report Share Posted December 15 Just for the heck of it, I decided to save all the blades i used this year, starting in January till today. I am done cutting for the year, so i decided to count them. 576, which comes to 48 dozen or 4 gross. I actually thought it would be more. Now, what to do with them? Maybe I’ll send them to Jimmy!

Because inquiry minds want to know, were these from the same manufacture & do you think you used less because they stayed sharper longer?

kmmcrafts Posted Tuesday at 07:37 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 07:37 PM Now all you need to do is flip them over and cut with the other end to get your moneys worth from them.. Be_O_Be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a false table top and see how close to top you can get. Use up a few more teeth. kmmcrafts and Be_O_Be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were 95% FD UR blades in various sizes. The rest were Pegus blades. The UR blades have a reverse tooth every third tooth. When the blade starts to dull, i reposition it to get fresh teeth. This is easy to do with the Pegas saw. I load the blade as low in the clamp as i can. When dull, i move it up in the holder as far as i can so there are fresh teeth cutting. It’s like doubling the life of the blade! This works on any skip tooth blade and FD UR reverse blades. If you use a regular reverse tooth blade, you will loose the reverse teeth when you reposition it. kmmcrafts and Be_O_Be 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
