Can circular blade for plywood be used on other types of wood ?
 
Dear Group,

I am new to this group and also very new to wood working. Just
starting to get interested. After several negotiations with my wife I
have started investing in some tools.

Recently I purchased a 7-1/4 plywood cutting circu;ar blade and I am
wondering if I can use this to cut other types of wood which are not
plywood.

Pardon my ignorance if this is a dumb question.

Thanks and Regards,
rsr

You can cut plain-old wood with a plywood blade...but it will probably
cut very slowly. A good carbide combination blade at Home Depot will
only set you back a few $$.

Is there a site with attributes of blades? Differences between uses
for 80tpi and 24tpi is one example. FAQ have it?

Clint is correct. You can use the plywood blade but it won't work
great. You may find that it actual burns the edge of the wood. The
combo blade have open slots around the edge to give the wood you are
cutting a place to go and thus prevent the burning.

Good luck!

I think the blade will heat.

I use my plywood blade for cutting plexiglass and it works fine. However
I would not use it for any other wood but plywood.
Peace ~ Sir Edgar

Do you need per permission to get a haircut also?

While you can, you shouldn't. It was designed to do a specific job well and
it will do other job either poorly, or the blade will suffer and not do such
a good job on plywood the next time. Get a good combination blade at th e
very least. Cheap blades can be more of a hassle and more expensive in the
long run.
