Never occurred to me the skill required to keep the blade from constant binding or putting burn marks in the wood.

Well, Lou does excellent work, and don't say anything....but, .....the legs on that table are no more developed than say, .... a pair of sawhorses.
LOL

Dan, that reminds me of trying to work with my father. His saying was " That's close enough". I'd be on a ladder and say " Cuda, cut me a 2x4 16 1/2"". He'd cut and throw it up to me . It would be 1/4" too long. " Cuda, it's too long , it's 16 3/4""..he'd say " it's close". "recut it !"...he'd cut it again, toss it up, it'd be 16 1/4" . Cuda, it's too *&^%^& short" He'd say " It's close, whaddya building a piano?".. "nevermind"..I'd have to come off the ladder and cut it myself. After a few times, I learned it was easier and less frustrating to just come down and cut it myself. He'd say " You're too *&^&*^% picky"....Damn, I loved that man and sure miss him...
