well, cher and everyone wants more pics so I started cutting a piece on the 18"er today --- as luck would have it it came off the board it was glued to --- so not wanting to quit or wait to re-glue it I lifted the lid covered the blade with a towel and hand held it just like on a small trim saw ----Hey, it worked!! don't think I want to cut too many like that but--------------if you have-to ---any thing to keep the "cutting" rolling!!---so in a couple of days we can have more pics!! ;D ;D

Um, just how hot is it getting out there? Maybe you need a nice lemonade and to relax a bit. All that slab medicine earlier has made you giddy!

should have gotten your wife or friend to take a pic of what you did, now that would have been a kodak moment.

;D ;D ;D Since everyone asked ---------- I fired it up again just so I could take a pic ---I held the rock about where the end of the towel is I know what the next question is ---how does the towel stay up there ----well the guy that had this saw had mounted about half a bike fender to the back end so the towel is draped over it---now wasn't that easy ? ;D ;D
