I just bought the 14" grizzly deluxe for 624 delivered. It is 1 hp. I am wondering, with a riser block, will I be able to resaw 10" or so pieces for guitar tops? Will the 1 hp handle it? Also, what is a good resaw blade for this saw? I like the woodslicer blades, but they dull too fast for me. Any blades cut as good as a woodslicer, but don't dull as fast?
