Tommy...unless I missed one or two there are 217 blade changes, not counting the long difficult cuts that required in some cases as many as 5 blades!

Stack cut with 2 - 1/8" BB and 1 - 1/4" BB with a 1/4" Sandeply backer which came out good so I now have 3 more...one for my "Wall of Wildlife" and 2 to donate...one going to "Wings of Hope" for their auction in February....

Yes...I said a few "Hail Mary"s and a few "Oh S*@#"s along the way!
