Due to the replacement of a number of Crittal metal framed windows, I now own a number of lengths of dry, straight and seasoned wood that formed the timber frames into which the metal frames were set. Now the metal frames were sealed in place with what seems and smells like putty but this is well and truly stuck to the timber in places. What I'd like to know is how hard is dried putty on the carbide teeth of a saw blade - will it blunt it quickly or not. If putting the timber through the table saw is not a good idea then are there any suggestions as to how to remove putty (easily).
So far I've spent a pleasnt few hours removing an assortment of nails and am looking forward with great relish to scaping cement/mortar from the undersides of the old window boards followed by a quick once over with the belt sander.
I know it would be easier to buy new timber when I need it, but I am keen to recycle whenever possible.
Cheers
