Mornin' Critter! Have a great day!

 

Working in the store right now. Got to do a little tractor work here in a bit.

 

Be careful on the tractor.

 

Hi Hobbs! I've got 12 cups o coffee down after sleeping in unusually late this AM. Supposed to snow here today as well.

 

Blade .. tell..

 

I picked up a 100 toof blade. It cuts smooth for when you need a clean cut. The blade that came on my saw is an all-around "generic" dealio.

Diablo.

 

I’m looking at em be perfect trying to butt up dem boards

 

Indeed it wood!

 

Brain is over loading thinking too much about these walls , getting a buddy to stop by later to pick his brain a lil

 

What are you contemplating??

 

Gunna go up a few inches to seal with paint or some time of sealer spray from floor up .. then hang plastic about 2 ft before hanging boards just keep it sealed a lil bit if I need to clean concrete or what not .. I’m not worried about the boards they’ll dry being cedar fencing

 

Hmmm... Yeah, speak to somebody who knows their business. You want to get that right.

 

Yea I wanna know before I continue to do the other walls... I mean in my head it seems right even if it’s just a few inches sealed

 

Uhmm, if you need a clean cut you can't use shit blades. Diablo and DeWalt are great blades for ripping framing lumber or plywood. Once you get into fine finish work full kerf blades are the only way to go. It doesn't matter how many teeth your blade has if it deflects doing the cut. Which every thin kerf blade ever made will do. I've been using Forrest blades for years. They are worth every penny.

Yep. They are not cheap. They also last a long time. I sharpen my finish blades once a year. My oldest Forrest is older then my current compound miter saw. Once you start cutting really dense woods for stain grade finish you will be amazed by how much better Forrest does compared to anything else.

 

Awww piss. So, my $80 Diablo ain't all that. $200 though.....
