Appreciation post: An old-timer at the quarry called me out on my blade work
He said I was 'scratching at the dirt like a nervous chicken' instead of taking full, smooth passes. I started setting my 12G's tilt a full inch higher on the initial cut and it changed the whole job. Anyone else get a piece of advice that totally flipped a basic technique for you?

Wait, what were you doing before that?

That "full inch higher" thing sounds like a lot... I've always found just a small tweak to the tilt makes the difference.

Yeah the "full inch" is overkill for sure. I just prop up the back legs with a couple of old coasters, gets the angle perfect.
