Hi Blake,

Great Post!!!! I liked it some much that I watched all the way to the end. I simply could not tear myself away from it. Have you thought about giving up woodworking and going into movie?

Seriously the post was very informative and, while I don’t think that Carter is in jeopardy of bankruptcy, it will prove to be a useful guide to those who want to follow a similar path.

Wow. four hours and saved $150. You should take out a patent on the design and use the royalties to buy more tools.

Very nice Blake! Did you get tired doing the last 1/3 of that video? lol.

Nice One! You were right about the video – which I thought was exteemly well made.

Very well made Blake. Both the tensioner and the entertaining video.

Sweet! Hey Blake ~ can you see any reason the handle could not be facing the rear? it would eliminate the notch for the gard/guide and save on head bumps. Of course it isn’t quite so convenient but then how often do we change blades?
