The wet saw blade that changed my bond pattern on a hospital job in Spokane
Had a 400-square-foot wall spalling on me last Tuesday, finally realized a duller blade leaves chip-out that forces different joints, so now I swap blades halfway through any big run and the coursing comes out cleaner, anyone else adjust their pattern when the saw starts walking?
Halfway through a 400-footer is the exact point I'd expect the blade to start walking, not noticing it until the spalling hits is brutal. I've seen chip-out sneak up on the last 50 feet of a run and turn a clean pattern into a mess you have to explain to the foreman. Swapping blades mid-run sounds like extra time, but it beats tearing out joints and re-cutting on a hospital timeline.
