    I’m looking for a good miter box saw. I put it on my Christmas list. Although I’ve had it on my list last year and I ended up with a cheap saw from Menards. My family needs to see this video.

      To some extent, I know that feeling. When I was promoted to O6, the same year I turned 50, I half seriously asked my wife for a used Porsche for Christmas. (I had been trying to warm her to the idea for quite some time, but with little success). Then, a few weeks before Christmas, in cahoots with my wife, my teen daughter “let slip” that “Mom was looking at cars”. I can’t tell you how excited I was. On Christmas morning….my wife, gave me a Matchbox car.

    James you forgot the D17 Double Duty saw. The hybrid handsaw. Jk. It actually gives a nice aggressive, yet clean cut. It's a good conversation saw in a tool kit. I love conversation saws. Then again all my tools are conversation tools. I can talk about them all day.

    In Germany we call the panelsaw "Fuchsschwanz" which means fox's tail because of the wide shape and coarsely serrated teeththe. I really like this name because I think it describes the type of saw very nice 🦊

    I really try not to worry too much about names but rather about characteristics of the saw and what it means for the functionality of the saw. Plate thickness, tooth size and geometry, set, cutting depth, length, etc. Those are, I believe, the most important thing to understand in order to make your own choices for the type of work you do. There are so many people pretending to know what the "ideal kit" of saws is, and I think it's interesting to look at them for information and inspiration, but in the end, only experimentation will get you there.

    Good on ya James, I really am happy for you and your success. You present a great product and seem extremely genuine and humble. I am happily 👍🏻 and feeding AL with my comments.
    Are you starting to hoard rasps and files to go with your killer spokeshave collection? I ask green with envy….. but seriously I could use a genuine recommendation for a durable Slim or extra slim taper file. The new Nicholson line isn’t cutting it and I am running out of the NOS eBay USA made gems like the full box of 6” XSTaper Simmons that I hide in my sock drawer so they don’t walk out of my shop.

    (The paint thing is a joke. Every project is unique and the craftsman has the right to finish it, as much as this pains me to say, in whatever way they see fit.)
    But seriously, save the paint for rust prevention and artwork like Handprint Turkeys.

    I am a saw doctor who manufactured and repaired all types of hand saws in Australia
    I found that in manufacturing we had a whole different classification system to the consumer who was using them
    Tooth size, hook angle from rip to xcut to GP (general purpose) TPI, and taper ground blades with no set
    They were all HAND SAWS. because they had no power connected and you used your hand to use them
    You have opened a giant worm hole with no end to it

    I rarely use hand tools, but I might actually be interested in the frame saws? (I have a need to cut logs into usable lumber... some REALLY hard wood too...) What would you suggest? Short of a lumber mill that I cannot afford, making a frame saw or other custom made hand tool might actually do the trick?

    • @criswilson1140
      @criswilson1140 2 года назад +1

      A frame saw will do it. If it is straight grain you may be able to split it with wedges and a froe, then clean up with an ax. If you have a lot to do, I'd suggest finding someone with a bandsaw - one or two logs can be fun to cut by hand, but it is tiring. :-)

      @chrisgriffith1573 2 года назад +1

      @@criswilson1140 I have a "14 inch" band saw, but I fear that even with a 3/4" blade on it, it would not do well on re-saw. (probably operator error) I have not gotten it honed in to that degree of precision, and there is too much sway, besides, the larger logs are far too much for getting onto that thing. What I am looking to do is get a log into rough sawn lumber, need only be a few feet in length, but that would do wonders for me!

    • @WoodByWrightHowTo
      @WoodByWrightHowTo  2 года назад

      A good frame saw would do the trick. As long as there's enough space between the blade and the arm for the log to fit into it. However, with any hand tool it just depends on how skilled you are at cutting a straight line. If you're having a hard time cutting a straight line with normal hand saw, then you'll have a difficult time with the frame saw.

    • @WoodByWrightHowTo
      @WoodByWrightHowTo  2 года назад +1

      I'll be talking about that a lot more next week. But basically it all depends on how accurate you want your cut to be. Sometimes you need big teeth because they work faster but the leave a more ragged cut. Sometimes you want smaller teeth that will give you a much cleaner cut. But take longer.

      the back saw sounds like a tall dovetail saw, but it would depend on the file of the tooth. if it is rip it is considered a large dovetail saw. if it is crosscut it would be a carcass saw.
