All these talk about putting blades in up side down back to front and what more is contagious. I sat down earlier today put in a new blade before I started and then looked at it as I was setting the tension something did not look right. Then when I looked closely, yes some of you might have guessed I had the blade in upside down. So I beter watch what I read in future

It sure is. I done it so many time that I stop counting
. Something else I did last week, I was setting up my EX21 after now using it for 6 months, I put back the old blade. I thought I was out of practice cutting and after a few minutes cutting I realize what i did.

I put the new blade between my lips while removing the old one, A gentle tug sure tells me which way to put it.
I learned this after cussing out the "bad blade" a couple of times before realized it wasn't the blade but OE.
(OE - Operator Error The same thing but a kinder name for stupidity)

I'm glad I read this thread, I can see myself doing this, and I haven't even started yet.

Or the slap, slap, slap could be your wife hitting you on your head telling you it is time for you to take her out.,,,,,,,

SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!
Could come from not holding your workpiece firmly in contact with the table when using a "REVERSE" blade.
Remember that those blades have 'upward' teeth on the bottom and will act just like a blade that is in upside down if the work is not held firmly.
Another thing you might try is 'bumping up' your cutting speed.
