Slitting saw questions

[rossbotics]

Hi Bob
Those are good questions, as far as arbor size goes it really doesn't matter, slitting saws come in a much more selective thicknesses than slotting saw, so you may want to consider what size slot you want first, cause some come with 1" arbors and others with 7/8", before it's all said and done you will wind up making both, slitting saws are mainly for cutting narrow slots while slotting saws are much thicker and heavier built.

Hope this helped
Here is a link to an arbor I made, can be modified very easily
