Best 12 Inch Miter Saw blade?
I recently bought the Bosch 4212L non-slider 12 inch miter saw. Now I need recommendations as to what's the best blade to put in it. The best two I've found so far are the Freud LU85R012 (96 teeth) and the Forrest CM12806115 Chopmaster (80 teeth). The Freud is a bit more expensive but not enough to really make a difference.
Which would you purchase? Or is there another blade that you'd prefer? Any help, advice, or opinions will be appreciated.
Mike
BTW, I don't have much time on it yet, but I am pleased with the Bosch 4212 so far.
Thank you for your advice
Thanks for your comments and advice. One more question - which do your prefer in a 12 inch miter saw - a thin kerf or a full width blade?
The thin kerf would cut faster but might deflect, while the full width will cut slower, require more power, but won't deflect as easily, especially when trimming a tiny bit off the end.
