Thanks Bob;

I was having a hard time envisioning how you tilt the fence to tilt the blade, your photo makes sense of it all……

Any more blades in the pipeline????

Yes, Andy, and thanks, I could not find the exact source! I will edit the original to point to the location.

Easy enough project really. If I were to remake it, the body would be thicker, the bar would go through a mortise, and the button would be flush with the body. As it is, I often set it down hard and release the button. Amazing thing really, the button holds it rock solid, a light tap and it comes right out.

Are these the blades you’re thinking of?

I’ve been thinking of making something like this for a while – thanks for the ideas!
