		<title>Thin plates and the work of sawing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is a current trend concerning thinner and thinner saw plates. Why? Well, the first answer is there is a quest for speed of cut. It is an interesting exercise that yields demonstrable results: Everything else being equal about saws, a thin plate does saw faster than one with a thicker saw plate. Aside from [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Space</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve done it—we&#8217;ve “completed” the move. Now the real work begins, that of rearranging tools, machines and hooking everything back up. More to follow&#8230;Mike ******************* I was pretty tried last night when I began this post. Being one&#8217;s own rigger moving heavy stuff—and just a lot of stuff—does that. Not being smart enough to hire [...]]]></description>

		<title>Installing a folded back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I received an email from one of our ShopNotes kit customers concerning how to install our backs. The method another vendor uses generally will not work well as our backs typically hold a bit tighter&#8211;and correspondingly are more difficult to install. When we got in this morning, I photographed one of the boys illustrating how [...]]]></description>
