Sumnergeo, This saw will get gummed as well using the sanding drum in my dremel. Another step in the process for me. Dan, I actually used a flat file as the finishing step after the 13/64 saw file.

The cutters have been filed to a point where the bridges are limiting tooth shape. Time to hog off some bridges! I started with an angle grinder and the thickest cut off w...

As long as a western saw exits a piece of moulding on the wall side, cut quality off the saw is not a deal breaker. As long as your saws track straight, which is a func...

The amount of set you actually need in a taper ground carpentry saw is pretty minimal. More often than not, old saws you start working on will have too much. Wenzloff recommends clamping the teeth of a saw in a vice with paper shims between the saw and the metal of the vice on both sides, the severa...
