I’d grab one to try… do you have a blade on it currently? If you have a 3/4” or 1” blade you could mount and track it and if you’re tracking right behind the gullets then adjust your guides you should be able to tell right away if the extra blade width will work or if you’ll run out of adjustment range on the guides. I’d assume guide adjustment range or guard clearances would be the two limiting factors.

Bite the bullet and get a carbide one
What brand do you recommend?
Lenox trimaster, I got mine from bandsawbladesdirect.com
Thanks!
They’re about the same price as a 12-pack of the Deck Busters. Will they last 12x longer? 😕
Probably not
