The body of the blade is made from hardened steel, helping to extend the lifespan and keep up with the tooth quality. The kerf is a crazy-thin 0.098 inch—narrow to keep the cuts fast by reducing the amount of material that needs to be removed. Like most Diablo blades, you’ll pay a bit of a premium up front, but the blade lasts so much longer than others on the market that the cost per cut is much lower.

Many readers stumble into my website in search of information on the latest and greatest sports tech products. But at the end of the day, you might just be wondering “What does Ray use when not testing new products?”. So here is the most up to date list of products I like and fit the bill for me and my training needs best! DC Rainmaker 2018 swim, bike, run, and general gear list. But wait, are you a female and feel like these things might not apply to you? If that’s the case (but certainly not saying my choices aren’t good for women), and you just want to see a different gear junkies “picks”, check out The Girl’s 2018 Gear Guide too.

There are a few special touches inside, too. The steering wheel is wrapped in Alcantara and the 50th Anniversary logo is embossed into the backrests. Dark chrome accents, new skid plates, and synthetic suede door inserts wrap up the special features.

Jacobs is equally proud of the parts mix he’s curated for the OB1. So much that on the website he explains his reason for choosing every part of the build.

Echo bested the group making nearly 0.50 cuts per watt hour while DeWalt’s 40V Max and FlexVolt chainsaws ranked 2nd and 3rd as the only other two to break 0.40 cuts per watt hour. On the other end, Kobalt’s 80V fell short of 0.25 cuts and Greenworks’ 60V Max model was also unable to eclipse the 0.30 cuts per watt hour mark.

Great article! Maybe this is a dumb question, but does anyone know if you need a longer chain length for a larger rear cassette? I have the 10-28 but want to add the 10-33 and wondering if the chain length will be an issue.

Conmet (www.conmet.ru), an implant producer from Moscow, has its roots from worldwide titanium producer VSMPO AVISMA (Verkhnaya Salda, Russia; www.vsmpo.ru) and previous owner Tetuhin Vladislav. Conmet started with a TRUMPF machine to develop processing for production of personal implants. It is not easy to meet medical regulations for implementing new technologies everywhere. The open question is certification for using implants in daily surgical practice.

Additional Notes: Unlike other 6-1/2” saws, this one has the blade on the right side. And its skinny, tuna-can shaped motor is positioned down into the saw’s shoe to gain every bit of cutting depth possible. Though called 24 volts max, the actual voltage is 21.6 volts.

This is where the rubber hits the road. We tested both the SawStop and Bosch Reaxx table saws to see how well their flesh detection technology worked. We do NOT recommend anyone else try these methods. After all, you’re essentially trusting in electronics to protect you—never a good idea when you can avoid it entirely. We also took precautions to minimize the potential injury due to a failure of the saw to stop the blade at all.

Okay. That was the final question in today’s call. Can I please pass it back to you for any closing comments at this stage.
