For that -- 6 TPI would do.
I started with 10/14 on my 4x6 bandsaw and slowly found I needed
pitches from 6 to 24. The 6/10 was the only blade that would cut off
6" square timbers, the 10/14 just clogged.

for thin stock . I have yet to use it for wood ... isn't that what
chainsaws are for ? Mine have been getting quite a workout lately
stocking up firewood .
