Chuck , now that sounds really scary and I guess its possible. I used to get 
a little nervous when I'd see the blade get all wavery after it got a little 
heated up cutting through a tough log. It looked like the blade was 
literally flexing from side to side as it spun. After a while it just seemed 
part of the routine and no big deal.
