The Crosscut Saw Filer, Part 3 of 5

[@budzillah7194]

This guy does a great job of explaining the procedures.

He wrote the book for the us forest service on saw filing. Crosscut Saw Manual.

Great, my "new" saw is for Hardwoods and I'm in hardwood country. It's a 42" version of the one at 30:36. Nearly straight and needs a good filing. Thank you for helping me put 'er back into service. Notching Poplar logs (a few anyway) is my goal.

I believe I've watched all of these and the section on jointing is missing. This is the best crosscut technical video series that I've seen, and I have been studying and using crosscut saws quite a bit. It deserves a playlist since it is a lot of work to dig up the videos individually, and yt does not link them cleanly.

Omg I was gonna say the same thing...he couldve mentioned this man and put a link in the description but he didnt. I definitely lost respect when I seen this

[@konstantinivanov1986]

@@pauleyboy6448 the sad thing is that a bunch more of his content on woodwork and I assume most of everything else is copied from others. What a weasel. Didn't take me long to figure it out been a hand tools woodworker for very long time. Another example of his plagiarism is a video on eclipse like sharpening jig and many others.

@@konstantinivanov1986 yea I'm glad you said something because people should know..I mean, he literally copied it word for word..I definitely unsubscribed, it's hard to tell how much hes stolen smh.

Very informative Video, thank You! Since I've bought my first old hand logging saw (rusty and dull, from a second-hand-shop) , I'm fascinated about this kind of tools. Guess I've eaten every video here about those saws at least twice... and It brought me an idea: It's the part of setting the teeth that makes me sorrow, because I have no gauge to set or control the exact length and position of the teeth. Please don't hang me up when I say I even don't want to use some gauges, I make it different: I lay 2-3 layers of strong canvas fabric on a flat surface and then put a strip of paper(*) over it. Then put the saw standing on the paper and press the teeth firmly through the paper. Remove the saw and now You can "read" the tooth-print from the pinholes in the paper! You can assess the form and size of every tooth-tip, You can measure the distance between them, You can pull 2 straight lines on the paper and judge if the pins stand in a nice row. Btw. No, I'm not a Dentist. But I was there a few weeks ago... (*I've got an old calculator with an integrated printer that uses paper from a roll, about 2,5" wide. That is perfect) Such a toothprint gives a bunch of information about Your saw - without using/buying some special gauges. You can even keep and date (and compare) different prints to see the "history" of Your saw. But what I don't know: is that exact enough? I'm not an expert and I have no gauge-controlled ("perfect") saw to compare. All I know: the result is usable. What is Your opinion to this idea? (I mean: if it was a good idea, can it really be that I'm the first one who had it?)

1: you can buy a feeler gauge second hand fairly cheap, that will be your reference to create those tools. make sure to get one that is not rotten and pitted! - that will not be accurate. 2: get some scrap steel 4 or 5 mm thickness (20mm width), now cut 2 pieces like rooftops (hacksaw or anglegrinder), grind the "floor" 2-3 mm lower and make the legs whatever you see fit, a few mm will do. 3: make 2 halfjoints in the middle, and file down to the middle on both, be precise! when you are happy and angles are all 90 degrees, make a small weld on the top to join the 2 halves. If you don't have a welder brazing them with a torch is also an option. grind down the legs on a flat surface like glas or marble with sandpaper grid 400 on top of it. Adjusting the spider gauge is as Warren miller describes in these video series, good luck :)

[@iotaje1]

A piece of steel or wood with 4 nails can be used as a spider saw set. Using a flat surface such as a piece of class and feeler gauges you can set it up the way you like, or you can simply adjust it according to your best working saw.

[@thomasarussellsr]

More great information, thanks.

[@johnmutton799]

LED lights are very good to show were you are working.

[@joehagerman2272]

Great video. Can these be purchased as a set? Thanks Joe

[@Steve_G88]

Where are the rest of the videos?

[@SerJahPhoto]

So, what do you do with the spider?

[@jman2911]
