Good evening creekers!
I just finished the copping saw I was working on( I had to wait for some blades and the pins from TFWW). It work superbly well and with the 18ppi skip tooth blades, it's quick! hera are a few pictures of the finish product and at work!! The wood is American Beech, other than the toggle, is Black Walnut.

I love the style. Much more important, how nice to have it work like you hoped!

Pretty!

I like the gnarly piece of walnut.

Thank you guys, indeed it is nice to get the result you expect, espacialy from something you made your self, like your A13 Brian!
I will stone the back of the blade to get smoother tight turn!

Your turning saw definitely turned out nice. That toggle really does stand out. What did you end up using for the tensioner?

Hi Jeff, thank you. I decided to go with syntetic sinew, and I have to say that it is realy good... So far!

A tool almost too beautiful to use but it appears to work well. Nice Job!!
