"Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They're easier to ignore before you see their faces. It's easier to pretend they're not real before you hold them in your arms. But once you do, everything changes."
Lots of squares arrived...I'm trying to line up wood for the chainsaw carver and totem pole carvers and the wood spirit carver, and pumpkins for the pumpkin carver...so as soon as I get caught up, I'll post some photos...

There may have been some crud on the tips from manufacturing.
In the ~20 years of scrolling I never cleaned the ends of my blades until recently. Even with the Pegas clamps I was having some blade slippage, I now scuff the ends of my blades with some 220 grit paper End of problem.!...
