Phill, my 8th grade woodshop days are about 37 years behind me. I don't remember much from way back then, just that I didn't want to get my fingers too close to the band saw or table saw! Our crusty old shop teacher was missing one thumb from the band saw...but it was a great teaching aid.

I'm just waiting for you to come up with a pre cut wood kit so I can build a Blade using stitch and glue. ;^)
