Howdy Keegan and welcome to the cave by the Creek.
If you think this is heated, try a sharpening thread.

Hahaha I bet that thread gets rowdy.
Waste removal outside the lines was completed on the 6 handles.
The saw bolts have been installed using a 1/2" pilot counterbore.
To achieve additional clearance with the bottom horn of the handle the toothlines have been canted to a value of 1mm per 1 inch length.
regards Stewie;
Those are coming along great Stewie!
To complete the saw plate slot in the handle a starting kerf is formed on the router table then taken to full depth using a backsaw of matching kerf width,
When marking out the hardback mortise, a length of slotted brass back is fitted to the top and bottom edges of the saw plate to keep the saw plate in parallel alignment.
