Get ceramic guides for wet wood. The Delta has lower guides closer to the
table, which is a good thing.


Ditto for both suggestions.
As for the ceramic guides and why you should consider them, I have
discovered that they are great at not only holding the blade
completely stationary and running cool, but they also help scrape off
the resin and crud that accumulates on the blade.

Also consider the Timberwolf blade designed especially for green wood.
Is has a heavy set on the teeth that helps prevent blade binding in
green wood. I've had OK luck with the Olson Pro 5/8 x 3TPI Hook style
blade in green wood, but make sure your wheels are coplanar with this
wide blade.

FWIW,
