I have just ordered a replacement saw blade for my sliding mitre saw. It's 216mm.
The now worn out blade has 40 teeth, and the new one has 60, but I noticed blades with 80 and even 100 teeth. Is there a happy compromise, or is it a case of the more teeth the better? I tend to favour a good result over speed of cut.
The more teeth the better the cut, I have a 100T blade for my table saw and it cuts beautiful through melamine faced board without any chipping even on the underside despite not having a zero clearance plate for the saw.
