I feel sorry for all the carpet installers around the country who are trying to buy or refill their carpet cutters. But not so sorry that I didn't go out and buy a few packages of blades. I left a few for them though. Soft hearted person that I am. ;-)

If you really get desperate, run on over to downtown Gainesville. Last time I checked they had plenty of them. I guess word hasn't gotten around here just yet. They've also got a ton of all the other stuff people have mentioned.

I can't believe that the carpet installers would actually use the cheap plastic cutter that HF sells for these blades! Seems to me that the handle on it would break right away.

Yeah you're probably right about that. Any carpet man I've ever watched had a real heavy duty one. So if we are buying up all the HF ones they're probably glad about it. Maybe carpet installers never buy those cheap ones.

[/quote] I bought ten pkgs of blades and my GF bought two. Also found two magnetic "bowls" to hold pins for $3.99. The one I got at the Expo was $12.95.[/quote]

I bought one of the small magnetic bowls and to my surprise when I put it down on my heavily padded ironing board, it stuck like glue, well almost.
I was delighted because I use my i.board for everything. It's set up immediately next to my machine and I place my pin cushions etc. on it while I'm sewing. Every once in a while my arm bumps it and the pins go flying. This totally prevents that. Plus it's just the right size ... not too big, not too small. I love it.
