Abstract: A saw blade assembly has a thin saw plate and a pair of collars, one to each side of the plate. The plate and collars include a center spindle hole, the spindle holes aligning with one another, and a plurality of secondary holes. The secondary holes are used to insert a fastener through the three elements. Alternatively, the thin saw plate is used with two collars that are not identically configured. One collar includes a center bushing having a spindle hole. The center bushing is longer than the first collar is thick and extends outwardly to one side of the collar. The saw plate and a second collar each includes a hole that accommodates the diameter of the center bushing such that the plate and the second collar fit over the bushing. Secondary holes are included to allow for the insertion of fasteners through common holes in the three elements.
