prestege timber tools at murarie
brisbane saw service at northgateAny thing with sharp teeth eats meat.
Most powertools have sharp teeth.
People are made of meat.
Abrasives can be just as dangerous as a blade.....and 10 times more painfull.

(So guess who's going to have a working saw again one day soon?)

Thanks very much for the replies. Peacock Saws are the closest to me so I will go over there today. It is so good to be able to get advice from people in the know.
