Gulf Stream. The Gulf Stream is a well-known, fast, intense, and warm ocean current in the North Atlantic Ocean. Its path goes from the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, along the eastern coast of the United States, heading to the northeast Atlantic Ocean, to the British Isles, and the Norway coasts.
Hardie board is a type of siding constructed of cement fibers by James Hardie Building Products Inc. It is very durable and can withstand extreme weather conditions and insects. To cut this type of siding, use a masonry blade. Masonry blade types include abrasive materials or vented diamond blades that are used for dry cutting. The blades are designed to be used with most cutting tools, including circular, table and miter saws.
The width of the ''kerf'' - the slot the blade cuts in the material - is another important consideration. Many blade types are available in both full-kerf and thin-kerf varieties. Full-kerf blades typically cut a 1/8 slot and are intended for use on saws powered by 3 hp (or greater) motors. Thin-kerf saw blades - blades with a kerf thickness of less than 1/8'' - were developed for use on portable and contractor model table saws with motors of less than 3 hp.
