Scott, how big is the table saw and what size is the motor? An under power saw with a regular kerf blade is a dangerous tool. I run thin kerf blade with bladec stabilizers do pretty well.

I suggest a typical Freud blade from HD is fine. If your table saw is 10", then I suggest getting a combo 50 tooth blade. Going thin kerf will be a little easier on your saw.

Is it a sliding mitersaw or just a typical miter saw? 60 tooth cut off bladeis what you need. If its a sliding compound saw, make sure you purchase their neg. hook blade, also 60 tooth. neg hook prevent the blade from "Climbing" hurting yourself. For a rougher and faster cut, you can also try their https://www.mscdirect.com/browse/tnpla/80822562?cid=ppc-google-New+-+Saw+Blades+-+PLA_shii7M4hA___164110844766_c_S&mkwid=shii7M4hA|dc&pcrid=164110844766&rd=k&product_id=80822562&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9OXT1KK34QIVYRh9Ch0O9g8XEAQYAiAB EgJAovD_BwE that's a good blade, I think its a lot better then their Diablo, HD jobs.

For quick run to HD, those are fine, but we try and use their blade on our jobs. Its a industrial blade and the run out is very good on them unlike the Freud blades. God know how much my guys spend on those Diablo saw blades. Oops, we need a new blade, now. Instead of waiting to get a new one at the shop, during lunch, go and get one from HD.
