Almost any job you do can be performed with a variety of blades. Coarser blades will generally cut faster and longer, Finer blades will produce fine detail and smoother edges.

Our suggestion: try different sizes, then use the largest blade that gives you satisfactory detail and finish for your particular project. That way, you get the results you need while maintaining maximum sawing speed and blade life.

The capacities given are only a guide. If you require fine detail on thick work it is possible to cut some thicker materials with fine blades.

Only experimentation will give you the definitive answer for your use.
