Re: Refurbishing a MkV 510
Well, I’ve been cleaning up the blades I had, the standard SS steel blades look good, the carbide tipped ones have some chipped teeth and are also missing a few teeth. So, what are good sources for saw blades?

Re: Refurbishing a MkV 510
With that you can get a lot of answers and opinions. First having both the 1-1/4" arbor and the 5/8" Arbor for your Shopsmith will allow you to choose from many sources. I have used the Shopsmith Blades and am happy with their cuts. I have used other brands which I have been happy with too. The biggest thing is having clean sharp Saw Blades.So, what are good sources for saw blades?

Re: Refurbishing a MkV 510
For Larry and any others who are saving the Arbors PDF and pictures for future reference, below is the SawSmith Radial Arm Saw and Table Saw Arbors.

.
The three hex shaped Arbors are from the Radial Arm Saw with 505512 being after the part number change in 1964 which is around the time the black protective coating was added to Arbors and other parts. The other Arbor is from the Table Saw and looks like 555608 which was originally made for the Table Saw before replacing 555118 prior to the Mark V 520 being introduced.

Another question, found this blade, not sure what it's for? Google didn't turn up much

Re: Refurbishing a MkV 510
Thanks, Didnt see that one. This blade has to date from the late 80's and there are no labels or markings visible.

Re: Refurbishing a MkV 510
I have a similar blade but with 12 teeth. Mine is 10". It was marketed as an inexpensive carbide plywood blade at a time when carbide blades were significantly more expensive than steel. Definitely not five stars. I used it on particle board and similar, basically anything that was particularly hard on a regular blade. Most of the label is unreadable but I can see 'Enduro' or similar and just make out 'ply...' Circa early 80's. Googling Enduro I see a couple of hits for a circular saw version (7 to 7-1/4") with four teeth as a rip/crosscut blade.

Thanks, looks like I'll reserve it for rough cuts.
