OK I've read about problems with wood burning but haven't experienced it before, other than a very small amount on some cherry.
I just started to cut a Judy Peterson dragon puzzle and I thought the wood was going to ignite - a very impressive plume of smoke ... truly worthy of a dragon!!!
I was cutting mahogany, which i've never cut before, a little under 3/4 inch thick, with a no3 FD blade, saw on a little over half speed.
I've read in various places that clear packing tape will stop the burning - I just don't have any right now! Any other solutions?
