I use the Tenryu RS-25524-U. Only 0.79 in thickness. I don't use stabilizer plates, but some saws may need them.
Here's their description. TENRYU It's the 2nd one down in the table.

 

You can use a 7 and 1/4 inch blade from a skill saw, as long as the
arbors are the same, and they have thin kerf's as well.

You might even save a little bit as they don't cost as much as the
regular blades.

 

get a 8 i/4 skilsaw blade but there is a super thin kerf blade but I think they are over a hundred dollars kerf is around .60 I think I could be mistaken

 

Forrest makes a super thin kerf blade it's at .70 but its expensive

 

Check out Freud 7 1/4" blades when you're at HD. For around $10-$15 you can get a decent blade that'll fit in the TS and will have just about the thinnest kerf possible (somewhere around 1/16"). I have used their 7 1/4" - 40T blade for just this purpose with impressive results.

Also, remember - safety first! For what you're planning, you'll need to make a new ZCI for your TS. Let us know what method you choose and how it works out!

 

Good call on the ZCI Wunderaa.

Zero Clearance Insert, yeah buddy.

 

Thanks for all the quick replies! Is it safe to run a circular saw blade in a table saw?

 

It must be Mike … after all, we did see it on the internet, eh?

 

Infinity makes a 10" 40T Laser TK that's 0.063". I tried this blade recently, and was mighty impressed.

 

What kind of project is this for. I have done this a lot in the past. My experience with thinner blades doing this was too much flex. I ended up with a thicker blade. But what I was doing, precision was absolute.

 

Do you have a band saw?

 

I use this blade for cutting 1/4" hardwood strips.
Quiet, thin cuts, and leaves a super smooth finish.
Lowes or HD under $15

I use Freud 7 1/4" blade in TS all the time for the very same reason with great results.

 

I would (lightly) joint the edge repeatedly after using a band saw to do the ripping.

 

I've also used numerous 7 1/4" blades for this reason , as well as my band saw , jointing after each slice, but that might waste more of your wood than you would like.

 

I have used DeWalt 7 1/4" ultra thin kerf blades in my tablesaw and they work well (and haven't had any safety issues)

 

how many strips are you planning on cutting the amount of wasted wood has got to be enough to warrant the cost of a new blade i think

 

The answer is Total Saw Solutions. The micro kerf 40

I love that tss blade. Gonna jones for one a those.

 

Uhhh… .79" isn't exactly thin kerf. Can you imagine? I started with a 6" board, where did it all go?
Decimals people. Decimals.

 

Pretty expensive but I'd like one.

 

Freud Industrial LM75R008 .091 Kerf

 

.062 kerf is less than 1/16"

 

Total saw solutions Micro kerf blade .0531" or 1.35 mm

Rockler sells them for $175
I'm not sure who else sells them. They work well.
