This manual was prepared for the purpose of helping anyone interested in the servicing of carbide-tipped circular saw blades. If it helps in any small way, it will be most gratifying to the author.
As I write this it is 2010 and this book is thirty-three years old. It is still an extremely good book and is much better, in many ways than anything else available.
The copy I had to work with is a copy of a copy and so on. I have used as much original material as possible. I think the saw blade pictures are sufficient especially since the accompanying drawings are excellent.
I have never had the pleasure of meeting Lowell Freeborn but several things have become clear in this project. He has a true gift for explaining very complicated matters in a very simple and clear manner.
Much of this book is dated. The metric / inch conversion tables use the old conversion figure and many of the carbide companies referenced are long gone. I have included only the chapters that are still relevant. If you wish I will be happy to email you a complete copy as a pdf upon request.

e Ridgid cast iron table and the Incra fence per the Incra directions. It all works really well. The set up took a little while but it’s sweet! I have done probably 50 cuts and each time I measure with a caliper and it’s dead on front to back on the board I am cutting. I think I am within .004 between blade and fence discrepancies. So for a Ridgid R4512 I’ll take it. Now I have a $1000 package that can hang in terms of accuracy with a nicer cabinet saw. Read LessRead less about So I added the TS-LS 32” to my
, the deal was too good to ignore and figured I would challenge any irregularities with the credit card company later. I also located a coupon code that made the price unbeatable. It must be stated, the expected delivery time on this particular unit was 6 weeks out, adding to my concern. This is the same time frame advised on the Incra web site as well. At probably 5 weeks, I was thrilled to receive delivery notice emails. The large unit came in pristine condition and packaged extremely well. I WILL NOT HESITATE TO BUY FROM CARBIDE PROCESSORS IN THE FUTURE. Thank you for the fantastic deal! Read LessRead less about I had been looking for several weeks
