Workshop Practice Series 10 – Saws and Sawing. The saw is one of the most basic tools and tends to be taken very much for granted. Many hours and much effort can be saved, and more accurate work produce, if the user has the knowledge of how his saw works and how to keep it in good condition. In this book, the writer provides detailed guidance on the use and maintenance of all types of saw, both hand and mechanical, from the humble junior hacksaw to circular and bandsaws, in the comprehensive and succinct manner that has made him such a respected writer on workshop matters.
