How do I know what scroll saw blade to use?
For harder, thick wood, use higher blade numbers. The blades with less TPI (teeth per inch) will cut more aggressively. For example, a blade with 8 TPI cuts faster than a blade with 12 TPI, however there is more control with a blade that has 12 TPI.
How do I choose a scroll saw blade?
Use smaller blades (#3 and smaller) for thin wood. That is the smallest size I use for wood. Puzzle cutters sometimes use smaller blades to make their tight turns, but for general scrolling, a #2/0 blade is small enough. Choose the blade that will allow you to cut the smallest frets without breaking every few cuts.
How many teeth per inch are required for cutting extremely thin wood?
