3D Bandsaw for Building RC Planes?

What about blades?

Would I need to get a finer cutting blade (if they are available) or are you guys just using the blade that came with the saw?

I was in the market for a bandsaw a while back and after looking over a huge number of "cheaper" options I was eventually convinced through testing to buy a decent unit, if you have the space get a 12" saw with a min of 1hp (750w) the smoothness alone will make up the difference in cost, but if you short on space the desktop ones are OK just be aware of their limitations, bandsaws by their nature are smooth cutters with zero pressure on the wood around the cut due to the constant motion of the blade but you will be limited to the throat of the machine.
