I use a 3/4" Delta blade from a local discount store to resaw old sb planks in half. A piece of delegnit and a poor sawyer broke my $50 carbide tipped resaw blade, which I haven't bothered to fix because I hardly find use for its tremendous set. I think more important is set-up and technique; I keep 3-4 (cheap) blades aside and tagged, with a discard from this lot I set up after using them for the "boys" to use as they like. This means I have to retune the machine each time I use it (which means I keep the allen wrenches in my pocket). I'm getting an extension for the saw, and will be augmenting the blocks with roller bearings - which will go with the reserved blades. Thanks, John, for the tips. Clark
