{"product_id":"crosscut-saw-manual-9781505773798","title":"Crosscut Saw Manual","description":"Many readers undoubtedly have run crosscut saws in the past, and a lot of you know the difference between a good running saw and a poorly filed one. A poorly filed saw deserves the name I have often heard attributed to it... \"misery whip.\" A well-filed saw, however, is efficient and canbe satisfying to use. Only in recent years was a chain saw developed that could beat a topnotch bucker in a contest. There is a record of a 32-inch Douglas-fir log cut in 1 minute 262\/5 seconds by one bucker.Saw filers of any quality are becoming very difficult-if not impossible-to find. This manual was written so those of you who use crosscut saws can maintain them yourselves and overcome some of the misery of that ol' whip.The manual provides a basic description of how and why a crosscut saw works, tips on building a saw vise, and some experience-tested methods as a guide for achieving a well running saw.Only saws having raker teeth are discussed, because they are by far the most common saws found today. This includes lance, perforated-lance, and champion tooth patterns.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50339564421394,"sku":"9781505773798","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_525a4e92-15f2-4ba1-9ad4-5fae1f3610eb.jpg?v=1728008013","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/crosscut-saw-manual-9781505773798","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
