    I use a small square (about 4' on a side).

      I also agree that is the way I do it. Use a small machinist square and check both sides of the blade and you can't go wrong. JTTHECLOCKMAN

        If you don't have a little square, take a piece of scrap at least 3/4' thick and cut about 1/16' into the wood. You can do two things. Turn it over and try if it fits in the kerf or you can try if it fits in the back of the blade, without turning it over.

              So many are selling them here it’s not worth us making them. However, we do very well with our dough boards. Nobody else makes them. We have an order for a dough board and matching pepper grinder. The walnut board I could make into a beautiful basket or two and sell for lots more than they are getting...

              I use #7 on my younger kid puzzles. Easier for them to put together.

              I did forget to mention he cut a finger on his left hand with the bandsaw. Just took skin off. Lucky again. Told him he was calling 911 next time.

              Jim, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, on the left you’ll find some style options that change the font size and color. I’ve been using Defalt vB5 Style, and it seems to be about the best for my iPad, but I’m still experimenting with my iMac.
