Hi folks,
Last week I was asking about G.H. Bishop saws. Well I bought my first dovetail saw. Actually its my first hand saw. You folks are right it is a slippery slope, But I am enjoying the ride. Since LOML is out of town berry picking with her sisters, I have no digital camera. I do however have 2 pics sent to me by the fellow, I bought the saw from.
45767
45768
I made a half dozen test cuts. It cuts nicely, and tracks very well, however It is a bit hard to start. I'm sure it it is just my technique, as the fellow I got it from said it started easier than his LN. I guess I will be reading up on stance and technique tonight.
Thanks to Jeff Horton for making a recomendation on where to get a saw.
