Re: Flat Top Grind Blade


 

Aren't all rip blades FTG?? That said, as in Lucky's example above, I recently sent of the combination blade that came with my (you should pardon the expression) SawStop to be ground flat at 10 degrees for use with a dovetail sled.? It cost $25.00, was returned to me in 48 hours, including shipping, and works perfectly.? I sent it to CT Saw & Tool () and can personally highly recommend them.? Jeff

John, do you have a Leitz rep in your area? Leitz have an enormous catalog of tooling and I¡¯ve bought several blades from them which are ¡°blanks¡± in that the carbide teeth are flat, ready for whatever profile the customer wants. I took one blade ¡°as is¡± which makes perfectly flat-bottomed grooves at 3.2mm widths, and I had a second blade ground ¡°all one way¡± at 8 degrees so I could use it for machine cut dovetails.?

Warm regards,

I have been looking for an FTG blade, but they are not easy to find. This would be primarily for flat-bottom cuts.

I bought a couple of Tenryu blades, but they do not offer a flat-tooth option with the right bore for a Felder.

Is it feasible or reasonable to have a saw shop re-bore my 10¡± blade to fit my Felder?
