Thanks much Charlie. I had a 14" Craftsman band saw and a DeWalt planer along with a double-bagged dust collector. Sold them all when we moved a couple of years ago. Not smart. So right around Christmas I got a discount coupon from Harbor Freight and gave myself a Christmas present. It's the smaller 9" one, that's why I had to cut the blank in half to shape the blank. It cuts nice and is very quiet, and looks identical to the 9" Craftsman.
We are lucky we still have areas we can shoot at. Little by little areas are being annexed, or somebody builds nearby, and you can't shoot within a city limit, nor within a mile of any structure. We drive almost 60 miles west on I-10 to a small mountain north of Tonopah (look it up). Lots of organized ranges closer, but it just isn't the same lined up shooting paper targets. It is a relaxing and fun sport and safe if you know what you're doing, that's the other reason we stay away from ranges.
