After touching a nail with my new Tuffsaws blade (yes, I know, but I can't afford new wood), I knocked up this little jig to sharpen the blade in-situ with my Dremel.

Honestly, it's as sharp now as when I first fitted it. Not a bad jig for the cost - £0 :-D
 
In situ ... nice 'n' easy, just slide it back & forth along the fence. Possibly not so awesome for a 14tpi blade though :-D

Now I see. I had been wondering how you were 'dressing' the cutting edge, but it's actually the trailing edge that you're grinding.
Thanks again.
 
I re-sawed a piece of oak worktop, 4'' high, the blade cut perfectly.
