just found harbor freight on route 101A in amherst N H accross the street from Lowes. it is next door to Michaels. I was so happy.
I left some carpet replacement blades for the rest of you, 2 for a$1.99 for 45 mm is a great deal. put one in my olfa and it works great.

Hey, this is good news! And one of my best buddies lives down there!
