Which number of Pégas scroll saw blade should I choose?

The number indicates the blade size. The higher the number, the thicker and wider the blade, with fewer teeth per inch. A Skip blade No. 2/0, for example, has 28 teeth per inch, No. 5 has 17 and No. 12 has 11.5.

Low numbers (2/0–3) suit thin material, veneer and tight curves. Middle numbers (4–7) are good all-round blades for 10–20 mm wood. High numbers (8–12) cut faster in thick and hard wood but cannot follow such tight curves.
