Haven't there been some people that use them as blades for home made bow saws. ?? thats what I would do with them. I just sharpen them with a dremel tool.

IN this book he is a joiner and makes furniture. His work is done with hatchets,saws and planes. And is highly carved. I was amazed at the things he would let "get by". But it is a factual book. And he was considered one of the better joiners of his area.

After reading my book I find that the "joiner" has been replaced by the cabinet-maker. What is the Mother Lands interpretation of the difference. Please no more long reading lists :) Oh yea is it joiner, joyner, or what is the correct spelling. Seems I see it different ways. Thanks

Great site Mike It just gets better and better. AS soon as I get done with it I will start over :) There seems to be a lot to read between the lines IMHO :) I wish i understood the economics and their social postition better. Might be an interesting comparison to what we get today.

i understand that. That is why i did not say it was the only way. And why i said what I said at the start of the post. I've seen the discussions on dado blades and other before. What works for one doesn't always work for others. But It has been presented in several magazines here. Everyone...

Scrit My 1940's table saw already has a riving knife in it, Not quite the same as what you use but not a guard as on modern saws. :) As far as clean up I didn't find it that bad but like I said I used small cuts. I only offered what I said as an opinion to help save the gentleman some money...

Knowing that us "Muricans are a little scary to be around.what with Dado's and all. You can make that on a table saw easily and safely. Make your self a set of rabbeted boards to hold the board at the angle needed. Or a full cover. Take off small cut, never more than the depth of a tooth. If...
