Blade Sharpening

I have a Freud carbide table saw blade that I think needs sharpened.
Whats the best way to take care of it? Is there a local place here in
Dallas that anyone knows of? Or do I have to mail it off somewhere?
If so, do I call them first and get a shipping form? Or how does that
work? Surely I dont just mail it to them with a note saying it needs
sharpened.

though.

In a city that size there's gotta be locals who can do that for you.
Have you tried the yellow pages?

Isn't that how the Howard Hughes fortune got started?

If you can't find a local source, Ridge Carbide Tool will do it a reasonable
cost in a day or two. One of my blades came back better than new. They
have a web site with pricing information. They do router bits also.

Piranah,

IF you cannot find some one local -- try this link -- last two I sent
took about 10 days to get back. Instructions are on the web site

There should have been a number with the blade , to call for shipping
instructions, but it usually is that simple , carton up blade and ship.
