1. Get a 1/2" Woodslicer blade


I picked up a wood slicer blade and the wood turner's blade from Highland.
What a difference these blades make. I had the one from the riser kit on
for a little while (to make sure everything worked before buying blades),
and it had a definite lead and sawed poorly out of the box. The Woodslicer
and Wood Turner's blade have no discernable lead and cut through the wood
quite easily.

I had forgotten to adjust the upper guides with the wood slicer on, and it
still cut perfectly.

Thanks for the tip.
