Post: RE: Dado blade comparison advice ?
Unless you will be cutting dado's deeper than 1-1/4", save yourself a little more money and buy the Freud SD206 set. I myself don't have the need very often to use my set but when I do need to use it...

Post: RE: Cross Cut Blade Recommendation
I have the Freud LU91M010 (thin kerf) and Freud LU85R010 (full kerf) blades. The LU91 lives on my miter saw while the LU85 see duty on the table saw. I would recommend either one.

Post: RE: Rikon Bandsaw Drive Belt Problem
I have that bandsaw but I've never had that issue. That being said, it sounds like maybe the belt just needs to have the tension adjusted.

Your issue might be caused by a lint buildup in the p-trap or discharge piping. If you are not already using one, a mesh lint trap may help, https://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/plumbing-installatio...

As long as the belt is seated all the way into the pulley and tensioned correctly I wouldn't think riding a little high would be an issue.

I doubt if any other benchtop planer has received more outstanding reviews than the DW735. It is very easy to adapt to any dust collection system although I would not use a shop vac.
