I just picked up a new Freud Diablo 10" 60 Tooth blade.
My gosh. It says right on the package "Cuts Wood to Correct Length"
Hell, if I had know it would do this I would have bought it years ago and save all that money on tapes, scales and other measuring devices.

WHERE DIDI GET THAT!!!!!
Damn.....
The only thing I can think of that would make sense is that they're trying to say that it uses a standard kerf and plate thickness so that the saw fence cursor remains calibrated.

THROW AWAY YOUR FENCE!!!
Forget about that! Think how much you'll save in MATERIALS.
"Cut that board three times and it's still too short..."
Big deal! That claim was probably made by a retired politician. I'm waiting for someone to come out with a negative kerf blade. That would be what I would buy :-)

Our Constitution needs to be used less as a shield for the guilty and more as a sword for the victim.
Just think of the implications! Suddenly that Federal sideboard is within reach! Just throw the wood onto the table and voila! no mis-cuts! Slap a little glue on...
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!!!!!
If I had known that I could have saved over a grand. I wouldn't have had to purchase my cabinet saw.
Doesn't say anything about width, now, does it? :)

Geez, just turn the wood sideways..... Man, ya gotta explain *everything* to some people

If you measure a flagpole that lies on the ground, you can only measure how long it is, not how high it is.

Seems to me that this kind of measurement must be relative. It all dependds upon to whom one is married. P D Q
I wonder if they could / will make a laser wood cutter? That will be as close to negative as we could get, me thinks.

A CNC controlled laser for cutting die boards, for example.

And a flag pole laying down is a lot longer than when it is standing up.

Silly! Those aren't blades, they're called Board Stretchers. I got mine at HF, on sale.
On Thu, 14 Jan 2010 16:18:27 -0500, the infamous Nova scrawled the following:
"Hello? Yes, Freud, I laid the saw blade on my stack of wood and it did nothing. None of it was cut to the proper length when I checked on it in the morning. What do I do now?"

"NOW you tell me..."
And THERE'S the rub.
Oh CRAP!
I haven't used it yet.
Might take it back and get my money.
Thanks.
