Frugal Frau strives to live like the woman of Proverbs 31: 10-31
10
[a]A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
11
Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
12
She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
13
She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14
She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15
She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.
16
She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17
She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
18
She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
19
In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20
She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
21
When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22
She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23
Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24
She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
26
She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27
She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28
Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29
“Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”
30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31
Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Another vote for the Roubo saw video please.
I'm another vote for yes, show the frame saw builds.
Yes please! I’d build one along with you.
Yes please, saw build would be great.
I vote yes for a frame saw video❤
I would love to see a Roubo saw build video!
Yes, please
toolmaking would be very interesting
I've heard of frame saws but have never seen one used, very useful tool. I would love to see how to build one.
A Roubou saw build, that would be nice.
I would also like to see the frame saw build. Particularly where he obtained the saw blade.
I would absolutely love to see a frame saw how to! This is my first time commenting, but I just want to mention how much I deeply appreciate your channel and content, there are far too few resources on hand tool woodworking these days, and you guys are a true gem. Thank you so much! 29yr M, Northern Lower Michigan
This comment deserves multiple hearts. Thank you. We will get to the saw. I am learning along with every viewer as I really want to become much more proficient with using all my tools, as Tom and I are a team…
Making a Roubo saw would be interesting. Where do you buy saw blades like that?
Highland Woodworking…
OMG, yes please! How to make Roubo frame saw! I made a kerfing plane (because I heard kerfing ahead of using the frame saw makes it go easier), and now all I need to do is make the frame saw. James Wright (woodbywright) I think has a video on making one, but the one Tom made looks better. I own an original frame saw from the 1800’s but I don’t want to use it because it is an antique.
Our Roubo is made from spruce and pine so it is lightweight, and only as long as it needs to be for the wood you would typically be resawing. Tom contemplated a kerfing plane but in his opinion this is really not necessary. Everyone of course works a bit differently and has different ergonomics. For example I am small woman, just 100#s at 5’6 .. very stringy.. so I just don’t have the mass to use any large heavy tools and I have to work from a higher up position with smaller tools to get enough leverage to push planes through wood. This makes me slower and less efficient. I help out in our many projects for clients where I can, like cutting lots of the grooves and the rabbets. I do all of the design and drawings and if the client wants a decorative antique or folk art finish, I do that too.
@@sukeyfrugalfrau I hear from a lot of men that a kerfing plane is a waste of time. As a woman, I disagree. However, the inventor of the kerfing plane was a man. It’s worth noting that Andre Roubo actually drew pictures of his frame saw being used by two people. I think it is only modern men that both claim that the frame saw is a one-man tool and that Kerfing planes waste time. Maybe with soft woods, but in my experience, cutting things like Bubinga, Ebony, and other hard expotic woods, running a kerf around all four sides really helps as I am female and of small stature. Still very interested in a build video on Tom’s frame saw.
@@devinteske I might not disagree with you on that, as I gain more experience as a woodworker myself. Tom is twice my size…..and who knows how much more powerful.
@@sukeyfrugalfrau I love the idea of using light-weight woods. I wonder what “only as long as it needs to be” translates to as a ratio of board to frame size. Could it be said, something like “3x board width,” or something to that effect for a general recommendation?
@@devinteske the length really depends on the maximum arm extension length of your arms assuming that is still powerful enough for you, in Roubo’s book ( we have a copy ) the lithograph shows the two man saw which is most likely longer than the arm length of either man. The width of the saw should be a comfortable width for the user when sawing, though if using the saw also as a rip saw, that would also have to be taken into consideration.
Yes to any build you show of your tools or projects or skill or….you get the idea. Thanks much
please show us how to make that saw. I would love to see that.
one more vote for a roubo saw how to tutorial
Please do show us how to build the frame saw.
Ein Video, in dem diese Säge gebaut wird, wäre toll!
Wir können es machen aber später.
@@sukeyfrugalfrau vielen Dank.
Ich kann warten...
Id love to see a tutorial on the frame saw build. The only ones availaible to buy online are worth a pretty penn
We are going to see if the company from whom we purchase blades would be interested in som minimal sponsorship; such as a few saw blades. We built our Roubo for about 15.00 using our own wood. The blades have like everything else, gone up in price. We thought they might chip in some blades for us to use to make videos using their blades to make saws.
I'm interested in how you made the saw.
I'd be interested in plans and how to make the saw. Hardware?
Thank you for sharing. I don't have a frame saw would love to see how the method changes when using a panel saw or a Japanese saw.
We used to use Japanese saws. It is more difficult to accomplish the task of resawing with them. According to Tom the framesaw cuts the labor by more than 1/2. We are working on a video on how to build a shop made Roubo saw it should be out in a few weeks. If you are going to do this with a Japanese saw you would want to use an Ooga saw as they are made specifically for sawing boards out of cants.
I'd certainly watch a frame saw build... I'll confess, I almost like watching tool builds more than I do furniture/project builds. Almost 😉
Building off something accessible like the ECE frame saw blades opens up the project to a lot more people than the Blackburn Tools kit, which besides being expensive, has been basically unavailable for 2+ years (they've burned soooo many bridges with the community).
Bad Axe makes a kit, but again, pretty spendy. Both have longer blades with coarse teeth than the Highland / ECE blades, but I see some people criticize the BA version as being too short / not coarse enough for 'serious' work? Thoughts?
I'm the guy in the video.
I couldn't agree more with the situation with Blackburn. Really burned a lot of people including us.
The saw we built works well, at least when I'm not really tired as the day we shot this.
The blade could be a bit longer as when you are resawing wider stock you have to take shorter than optimal strokes.
That said I have resawn hundreds of panels with it and it gets the job done without having to deal with a bandsaw we don't have room for. And the price is extremely right.
Carry on and make sawdust.😎
@@thomaslthomas1506 how much better do you think it works than the same blade in a more vertical traditional frame, just tilted?
@@memilanuk For resawing it is a night and day difference. A regular "continental" saw is fine for ripping but really falls short when sawing thru thick stock or resawing. I actually use the same blade in both thought I put a bit more set in the roubo saw when I sharpen it.
@@thomaslthomas1506 awesome, thank you for the feedback!
Looking forward to seeing the frame saw build 😉
Ive never used this type of saw and I notice you are using it as a push saw. Ive fallen in love with pull saws primarily because I find it is so much more ergonomic and I do feel I have increased control of the blade. You really appeared to be struggling on your push strokes, so I wonder if your saw could be used as a pull saw. If so, I think Id really love to have one a video re: how to make one would be great!
Tom was pretty tired when we made this video… but you can use it as a pull saw if you change the tooth profile. Tom prefers push saws. I also find pushing is easier for me personally too. We plan to make video on sharpening and changing tooth profiles too.
@@sukeyfrugalfrau Excellent. I’ll look forward to that video.👍😀
Yes, how can I make a frame saw?
What are the benefits using this saw compared to a rip saw?
It technically is a rip saw, which is defined by the tooth profile.
It doesn't flex like a panel saw (Diston style) so it doesn't tend to bind.
Also it can be used with both hands. So power can be applied evenly to both sides.
It is essentially a scaled down pit saw. Which has been used to saw lumber for thousands of years.
@@thomaslthomas1506 Many thanks! Succinctly put, v useful
Can't like it until I see it. Depth or width? Seems like you'd want to cut it the whole depth. What do I know? Looks like the hand work gets a better result than the band saw. But, these young RUclipsrs don't have the talent, or time behind a saw to do this work. Okay, now you've earned the like.
Depth or width.. not sure what you are asking …. How about thickness…Tom says that the longer board the easier it is to do. This was a short demonstration board. Also the ergonomics and the flex of the board make it easier if you flip the board halfway through. We ditched lots of power tools when we moved to VT from western WA back in 2018. Electricity is much more expensive here and besides that the bill is mostly subsidies for pie in the sky energy sources… fairy dust, unicorn gases etc. Cutting from the same end but into the opposite edges after turning the board around helps to keep this cut straight and this is also improved by scoring and cutting with a knife into that score to give something for the saw bald to follow and your eye to focus on to guide the saw. Anyway that said our aim on the homestead is to avoid as much electricity use as possible for many reasons.
@@sukeyfrugalfrau We're in CT so we feel your pain. We are the second highest utility rate in the nation. Lucky us.
My eyes are bad - does this saw cut on the pull stroke or the push stroke? I'd be interested in seeing a more detailed look at your Roubo saw, if not a build video. Thank you for sharing.
It cuts on the push, though you could reverse the blade and cut on the pull. That would require a change in the tooth to cut properly on the pull.
