tim, is there a circular saw blade that can cut masonite. what is masonite. please respond. thanks.

[AsktheBuilder]

Just about any blade can cut masonite. Masonite is an engineered-lumber material made from sawdust and glue.

Tim, notice the "80 teeth" on the plywood blade :-)

It would be great if you could cover some of these issues: What about battery charge memory? I've heard conflicting ideas about this. I've had relatively new batteries' charge life decline rapidly over recharge cycles. I hear there is a special kind of charger that can "condition" batteries in this state and restore their original charge capacity. How about the guy who keeps his battery in the charger, using it once or twice a month?

Tim, the second blade can also be used to have smooth cuts in wood and can the plywood blade can be used to cut harwood flooring

You can also use the blade that had 30 teeth to get a smoother cut in wood.
