Looking at Result med grit 0.04 kerf or MK med grit 0.032 kerf looking to cut pattern bars up to 2" thick. Any experience would be appreciated thanks

We've had good experience with the MK, but you may need a blade stiffener. It's really thin and has a tendency to wobble if you go too fast.

Many people also swear by the Result blade and we've used it with no problems, but usually buy the MK.

Thanks Brad

Any idea where to get stiffener? HIS doesn't sell them

Use an old 7" blade or anything stiff metal with a hole the right size. Just put it on the shaft right next to the 10" blade.

you won't be able to use a 7" blade as a stiffener on your 10" when you cut 2" material!

Good point! Have to be smaller, 5" or so. Something like this would probably work: https://www.amazon.com/CMT-299-102-00-B ... B000P4NTRW

As I recall, HIS used to carry them, but I guess there wasn't enough demand.

Set up a stop, set saw to cut 1.25", cut groove and flip to finish.
I'm finding a lot of drag on the thicker pieces (10" Result blade with 5" stiffeners, plenty of water) otherwise.

Went with a new MK...OMG what a difference. The old blade must be almost shot..the new one is like night and day...
