This may be a silly question, but can anyone tell me if can I use the same blades on my SCMS and my tablesaw?
I have a SIP 1332 10" table saw and I bought a Bosch GCM10SD recently. Both of them take 254 mm blades. The spindle bores are different diameters but I can use bushes to adjust them.
What has prompted the question is that I have been trying to cut some 22.5 degree bevels on the table saw so that I can build a radiator cover from MDF. The table saw blade is a Trend Craftrange 60 tooth top bevel blade but it does not provide a very good cut. The Bosch came with a couple of spare blades one of which says 254x3.2x30. 80HW on it.
I assume that the greater number of teeth gives a better cut but I am always careful to the point of nervousness with these machines. I cannot think why the Bosch should not be OK but wonder if I should just forget about it and buy a table saw blade specifically for cutting MDF.
