A saw has a system for sensing the torque on a cutting blade to signal when the blade begins to cut material. The saw has a drive belt extending between a driven wheel and a drive wheel and a belt tensioner that engages a side of the belt and maintains tension in the belt. The belt tensioner is movable to maintain the tension in the belt. A control system calculates the movement of the belt tensioner. The saw has a system for determining the size of the sacrificial blade. A through beam photoelectric emitter and receiver pair are positioned on opposite sides of the blade such that a largest cutting blade is moved above the beam regardless of a horizontal position of the cutting blade and sensor senses a vertical position of the axis of the blade. The sensor senses the vertical position of the blade axis when the blade is moved above the beam. 116-. (canceled)17.

Further, the travel of the cutting blade along a cutting path will create a cutting action in a controlled and defined manner. Further, the cutting blade is shielded on virtually all sides, thus eliminating the possibility of injury or harm to a user. 1. A blind cutting system for customizing window blinds , comprising:A framework;a pair of substantially parallel rails attached to the framework and oriented in a near vertical position during operation of the blind cutting device;a cutting saw slidably coupled to the pair of rails, the cutting saw having a cutting blade which is movable along a cutting path, which is contained within a portion of a cutting plane, when the saw is moved along the pair of rails, wherein the cutting plane is also substantially parallel to the pair of rails;a holding structure coupled to the frame and positioned in predetermined position relative to the pair of rails, the holding structure comprising an adjustable support shelf, a slidable holding clamp, and a slidable registration stop, wherein the adjustable support shelf is capable of being sized to support the blinds to be cut and has supporting surface which is and normal to the cutting plane, wherein the slidable holding clamp has a clamp surface substantially parallel to the supporting surface which is movable in a direction normal to the clamp surface and the supporting surface, and wherein the slidable registration stop has a stop ...
