    I fell over the edge.
    Now just waiting to hit the ground.

    On the waiting list. Not sure how long before I hit the ground.

    Granted it was only paper, but I like Paul Newman’s Style

    Well, thanks for all of the moral support. I picked up my 500iR today. I ran the first tank doing some light noodling. I hope I can get it into some real cutting soon. Keep up the honest feedback and stories. 4AA666D0-DD02-4BC5-A146-60E60AA02D4D.jpeg

    Thanks! I appreciate having a place to learn, share, and commiserate around saws and cutting wood. I will try to contribute what I can and I sure appreciate hearing from some different perspectives.
