Thanks John.  I figured it must be something like that.  I'll have to get to that before I use it again.  Otherwise I like the Bosch in the table.  I'm not spinning big bits, so it has plenty of power.  I also like the capability to adjust from above the table.  Never had that before.  It's a nice feature for those of us who don't have a lift.
If you are going down a river at 2 mph and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to shingle your roof?
