I hear ya brother. I get that kind of thing all of the time. One of the bigger wood component shops that is a customer called me in, madder than heck that the new super fine trim blade we had just sold them was all busted up. I showed up to take a look, and sure enough the carbide tips were trashed. Anyone could see that something other than wood had gone through that blade. They had begun to build these little teardrop trailers during the slow time, and the miter blade they used to cut the aluminum trim was about ten feet down the line from the wood trim miter.

The floor boss was facing me, and I was facing the cut line, when I asked him if it was possible someone had run a piece of aluminum through it. He literally said, 'Listen, our guys are well-trained to use that saw (pointing at the aluminum miter) for metal, and that saw (pointing at the wood trim miter) for wood" like how dare I even ask a question like that. Just as he finished the sentence a dude walks up and shoves about a .100" thick piece of aluminum in the wood miter and rams the saw blade down into the cut. I wish I could show you a video of that floor boss's face.

Oh, ok. Could a light chopper still handle it?

If this is a serious question, and not just a joke, are you sure you have the type of wood correct?

Balsa wood is extremely soft and lightweight. So lightweight that it's used for making toy planes with the rubber band powered windup propellers.

Anyway, if it's a serious question, any of the CPK choppers can chop just about every kind of wood under the sun. It'll just take a little longer the harder the wood, and the lighter the blade, but if you wanted to, you could chop mesquite or ironwood with a Light Chopper.

Agreed. FYI, you can turn off the profile posts option. I have.

Since it's kinda random and not a Q for the Man himself, I'll add something here:

When I posted that comment in ANAQ thread, I did not mention that the Q posted on Nathan's was from a certain 25 YO who could very well be the very same person who caused some major drama in here couple of weeks ago who was subsequently banned by no other than Nathan himself. I did not expound, because I felt that if Nathan read the posted Q, he could put 2 & 2 together. Whether he did or not, it doesn't matter.

Speculatively, there was another instance when this individual had attempted another come back, again shrugs! This individual may feel that he is a good guy and was walked down the plank unfairly. He may genuinely be interested in learning some stuff and since I know that Nathan is a great teacher if he has the time and also is generous with his time, when he has got it, the best way would be for this guy to email them directly and to come clean. I am sure that he is lurking and reading but must realize that there are severe consequences for the kinda stuff which he pulled here: banned for life.

There are plenty of other ways to contact the Carothers to seek info. One doesn't have to look too far to find their business related email. The weasel-like ways in which this guy is still doing it, is digging the large hole which he had dug with him in it, even deeper.

I suspected you meant that, but didn't want to press it any further there either. Did you report that guy's profile yet? It should be done so the mods can look into doing an IP check for the banned profile.

Yeah, I think you'll probably be okay with that. :thumbsup:
