Need suggestion for miter saw blade
Any suggestions for a good 12″ miter saw general purpose blade? I use a Forrest for furniture and trim, but need a suggestion for building a playhouse. Thanks.

Frued Diablo wont let ya down.
right now DeWalt has two 12 in blades for sale 59.00 one 32 tooth the other 60 not fine wood saws---- 32 good for ripping and end cuts on rough /framing,---- 60 does a nice job on finise work and they are rugged blades and you can get better blades for more bucks if you need fine wood working cabinet grade. dogboy
