Great Product

A great idea that needs a little tweaking. You can cut straight slots, if you're careful. It is advertised as only taking .025 saw blades or files, but mine easily took a.035 hacksaw blade with no trouble at all. That part is great. But, when I try to cut .025" slots there's too much room for error, so I have to watch closely to get the blade centered. The first thing I did was to make a brass hold down screw so that when I tightened it up to hold the screw, it won't ruin the threads. I'm going to get some tool steel and make some larger rollers to tighten up the gap for a .025" saw blade. I'm like that other reviewer, they need to offer different size rollers so you can cut a wide variety of slots. All in all, it's a great little gadget that I would recommend.
