Fun with Bubinga

[MikeW]

Another little panel saw. Bubinga handle, 19" blade length at 10 ppi...

Take care, Mike

Thing of beauty, Mike

You haven't quite broken down my resistance yet, but you're getting close. Better post a few more :lol:

OK :lol:

This is a near-completed large tenon saw. One of two that are built for two seperate customers. You cannot see the finished product until the owners at least have a chance to hold them tomorrow or Friday...And I see in the picture there are a couple others behind it.

These are 19" long. 10 ppi rip. 4 5/8" usable depth at the toe and about 5/8" more at the heel. Beech handles. .025" blade thickness.

Take care, Mike

Mike, have you done a panel saw with a straight heel rather than a bulbous one? I've tried to reeducate myself but somehow the curve doesn't quite hit the spot with me. Hopelessly wedded to what I know I suppose

Cheers, Alf

Not that I am a collector... :roll:

But I am a little partial to Harvey Peace saws. Maybe it is the underdog thing. So when I decided to make versions of some particular saws, I chose Moulson for the small joinery saws, and of course Peace for a few, including the panel.

Funny thing is, if someone wanted a panel fashioned after say a Disston...or a S&J or ???, well, I would of course make one :wink:

And I am making a Kenyon beginning Friday. Called a panel, it has a 26" blade length. Again with a Beech handle. It'll take a few days to finish it, but I'll post it when the owner at least has had a chance to hold it.

Take care, Mike

Mike,

I take it the use of the kitchen table has been approved by the LOYL?

If your darn saws get any prettier I may just have to place an order.

Lovely work (again!!) Mike

The only thing missing is a customized logo so that 100 yrs from now an
untrained eye will know who made those beauts.

Get one now before Mike starts with the W logo.
You'll be able to retire by selling your "pre-log Wenzloff" on Ebay :wink:
