I will second that.  Starrett blades (obtained from work for free from the leftover pieces) have served me well.  If your saw starts to cut crooked, replace (and readjust) the blade.  No sense in fighting the tool that is supposed to save you time and effort.
Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts
