[QUOTE="Pat Hogen, post: 563902, member: 11720"] Be aware "xc" that the two saws are NOT the same. The Aussie Sapphire one is Standard, the Flat Lap one has an improved table for safety when cutting. You could, of course, fix the problem with the Aussie Sapphire original by using a piece of sheet metal to narrow down the margin around the blade which will eliminate pieces falling into the gap and ceasing, warping, the blade. Always wear eye protection when pushing your piece through the blade. My brother had safety glasses on when cutting, one day, and the photo we took of him had one eye cover of the glasses with a stone fracture right in the centre of the left eyepiece. [/QUOTE]
