<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi John, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>one also needs to go down to radio shack and get a
little switch to bypass the main switch, so that you can turn it on and not have
to hold the triger switch down all the time. Using this device can miss shape
hammers vrey quickly if one is not alert. Also a good support of the hammer at
the tails helps to get a good result. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>See 301 - 1-2-3 on my site for the non-motorized
version.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Go to a yard sale, get an electric knife, and
make your own.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>If I remember correctly, you just shape the
knife blades, spread them apart, and attach a length of cloth sandpaper
belt. I imagine heat would have to be used to shape the blades. Grind them to
length, and grind off the edge of the blade.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Of course, I have been wrong before.
