    thanks for the demo. I too cannot find a barber to give a decent flattop. I have a set of oster 76 clippers, and a few blades. so I have purchased the blades that you are using and will attempt to give myself a flattop this week. wish me luck. I have cut mine in the past, but this time I am going to really try to persue it. thanks again for the demonstration.
