    I thought I'd just peep in here and give my opinions on the redsail stuff.

    I've got a M900. It came in a well build crate, with everything secured down with zippy ties and foam. Once I got...

    What about cutting out the tag? I can see problems if you got the bit too deep and the piece started to move around once the material was cut? Is the solution just to cut deep enough so that you can...

    I was thinking last night I could do away with the plastic in its entireity and just make some sort of wax injection system that creates the comb out of wax instead of plastic. Hmm....
