    I'd chop it 4", you could probably get away with a 3" if you wanted to be conservative.

    I think Nick has having some technical problems.
    He is having a bit of hassle getting the new hacksaw blade to fit into the saw. :)

    I think 4'' is the way forward, not TOO much, but just right.Its all about the proportions I don't dig the top heavy look that it has right now.At first I wasn't gonna chop it at all, but the more I look at it the more I know I'm gonna have to do the dirty chop business!;)
