You guys crack me up. Love reading the post that make me LOL! Here is an interesting video that made me wonder about me as a retired teacher and our future.
BPOC1, that video is a bit exgerated, maybe. If you ever called the HP or AOL Help Desk, it goes to India. You would spend the rest of your life trying to get help since they have no idea what your saying.

No longer a laughing matter. Taiwan products are really OK and their so called Stainless Steel does really not stain.
I just cut a 1936D Lincoln Cent out of a slab purchased at a coin show today. Just used a vise, hack saw and poof, opened up. Really horrible that the only 36D I've been able to find in MS had to be in a slab.
Recent replies to this thread ... while valued ... are veering way off topic ... which, as a reminder, is about using my bandsaw (a modern woodworking tool) to crack a slab.
I can and will engage in a healthy debate on woodworking stuff ... but that is not the purpose of this post.
Hoping that you wood-expert folks can remember this is a coin forum .... and reply with your valued input on using WW tools in the coin hobby.

Nope ... I do not send them in to PCGS ... simply tape the labels into the folder ... like this ..
Gotta love cracked out coins ... the best of both worlds.

I too USED to do that. Then one day I said to myself, SELF, WHY? In the future no one would believe that those lables are for those coins except me. And if you change coins in an Album, you may forget to move that lable anyway. And if you tape it in place, you'll have to cut it out and add more tape. Lots of work and only good for a reminder of what it MAY have been. So I stopped doing that. Woodworking not the same as coin collecting? I didn't know that.
