I was using the wrong saw blade for plywood for almost a year

I was getting a lot of chipping on the face of my birch plywood, especially on crosscuts. I figured it was just the nature of the material. Then, last month, a guy at the lumber yard in Spokane asked me what blade I was using on my table saw. I told him it was a 40-tooth general purpose blade. He just shook his head and said, 'You need an 80-tooth crosscut blade for that, or you'll always get tear-out.' I switched, and the difference was night and day. Has anyone else found a specific blade type that solved a similar problem for them?

Tried booking a flight to Lisbon 3 months out vs. 3 weeks out, the price difference was insane

Pro tip: I swapped from a regular ratchet to a low-profile head for tight spaces and it saved me an hour

I was working on a Cessna 172's cabin heat box last week, and the access was terrible. My normal 3/8 ratchet head was just too thick to fit on the bolt without hitting the firewall. I grabbed my buddy's low-profile head, which is maybe half as tall, and it slid right in. I got the bolt off in two minutes instead of fighting with wrenches for over an hour. Anyone else have a go-to tool for those impossible spots behind the panel?
