I have a quantity of thick (40mm) American Black Walnut to resaw for a table I am working on. The boards are up to 20cm wide, which is at the top end of the capacity of my bandsaw (Record BS300).
I have already used my existing widest blade (3/4 inch 4tpi from APTC) to resaw some mahogony, but the walnut appears to be harder, and I would like to cut down on the amount of planing required after the sawing by getting a blade that will give a better finish.
Any suggestions about the blade I should be using to cut through walnut like butter and give a mirror finish? And more importantly where can I buy it from? I am willing to compromise on the part about the butter and the mirror!
