Well I did manage a bit of shed time today. I cut a piece of faced MDF to use as a zero clearance plate, then tried to cut a serpentine blank with a piece of Beech and some thin Sapele offcuts.
Just one (rhetorical) question, why did they supply blades with no kerf. These are a nightmare to use, and I think, dangerous. I would have thought supplying a couple of Olsen blades would result in better sales. Fortunately I have a very varied range of Olsen blades and the saw seems a good buy so far.
