    What bandsaw blade size?

    Hello guys, I was wondering if I could get some advice on what blade size to use on my bandsaw to rip some 2x2" lengths of pine into about 5mm stips on my 375w 10'' Woodworking Bandsaw (that I usually use for cutting circuit boards and thin laminates). Was thinking around 1/4" 14tpi?
