Can't believe how much mileage you've gotten out of painting one handle!
Marv's post reminded me of a caution. As I was using Christian's technique to shine a few saw plates last night, I forgot that some of them had just come back from Marv. I guess I got too close to the teeth because suddenly the saw was covered with more blood than Autosol. I think it just adds some flavor.

I was pondering a saw at a flea market a few weeks ago and it slipped every so slightly from my hand. I reached out with my left hand to stabilize it, and left quite a bit of my flesh on the teeth. Given that it could have been viewed as a biohazard, I had to buy the saw. I offered him a bloody dollar bill, which he accepted provided that I leave and clean up my hand
Lesson here is that sometimes(and I mean rarely) blood on a saw (in this case a D-8) can lead to a good deal.
Tools that are no good require greater skill.

Hey Marv,
Why are the slots on the left side?
You may have been asked this before...humor me.

Marv - I believe Toby is referring to the fact that it looks like the screw slots are showing on the same side as the medallion in your photo.

I just give a shot to Aluminium foil-polish combination, and it look nice.
I also did another side of saw with same polish (festool 6000 grit) and medium hard felt pad on festo rotex.
I can't see the difference.
Is there any reason why not to use power polisher?
