I decided to take the time to figure out how dewalt
wanted me to change the blade and after about ten minutes I saw how
unbelievably simple it was. I finished the storage bench and started
giving the garage a good cleaning. Five minutes into the cleaning, I
found the manual. Damn murphy.

You got off easy. If Murphy were really doing his job you would have
finished the bench without incident, reinstalled your good blade, cut some
virgin stock and clipped an embedded piece of metal.
