Need scrollsaw blade advice please. I have a Hegner 18” scrollsaw and need to cut some 1 1/2” hardwood. What blade would you recommend? Maybe a Polar 12 or ultra reverse 9? Thanks!

I use a skip tooth Pegas blade for thick cuts.

I use a polar blade for 1 1/2 compound cutting but usually only a 5 or 7.   A 12 would make it difficult to make any turns.

You want to clear the saw dust. 

I have used #6 Pegas Skip tooth and they work well too.

One thing that helps if hardwood it to wrap the wood with packing tape.

I use Pegas #6 Super Skip blades for my compound cutting.  If you are in the USE and interested in trying them, message me as I sell Pegas.
