Points were not closing correctly, they came together at a point.

I actually had to put a spare set of used points into the saw, and those points needed extensive filing/sanding. The original points were worn so bad that I don't think they were salvageable. I didn't notice how badly they were worn the first time I had them out.

Yes, I put a small drop of oil on the felt and squeezed the excess out...

Might want to find you a spare set.

Took the big kids out today to stretch their legs a wee bit. Man I love running saws!
