Hi Joshua,

What Chris said.... all good useful information.

I'd add a few more comments.... if you have a silicone carbide flat stone, try doing a very light jointing along the tooth edge. A...

Hi Richard,

I do pretty much what Chris said. Establish your own rake and fleam angle on all your crosscut saws. Make them all the same. Makes it easier for future sharpenings. One thing I would...

Todd,

I have an Acme vise... to get those pins out, just use a long drift punch and knock them out. They are a slip fit through one part and a tighter fit in the matching part. Drilling them out...

Leo,

Will it be a twenty dollar bill? :D

Thanks again...

Leo,

When I clicked on "exceptions" Sawmill Creek was listed there. I merely deleted it from the list. Actually, it was the only site listed. Wonder how that happened? I didn't do it. :o

That did it. Got pictures now. Thank you very much.... :)

Leo,

I just now upgraded Firefox to version 5.0 Still no pictures.

Keith,

I use Firefox as my default browser. If I switch back to Internet Explorer, the browser I used to use, I get the pictures. However, it wasn't until you upgraded your site that the problem...

Steve,

I heard that a picture is worth a thousand words. So if there are three pictures, that's worth 3000 words! If we can't see the pictures people post, it takes away a large amount of what is...

Leo,

I updated my JAVA....still doesn't work, still no pictures.

Keith,

Is my image viewing problem solvable? Am I the only one having this problem?

Hi Keith,

Thanks for the response.

No, I don't see any pictures. What I see, are the words "Attached Thumbnails" in a grayed box. Do I need to do anything to make them show up?

Is there something I need to enable to see pictures that other people post in their threads?

Thanks.

Lowell,

If you only have one damaged tooth on a 10PPI saw, it won't noticeably effect the sawing. When that happens to me, I just leave it that way and depend on future sharpenings for it to grow...

The Taintor saw set comes with a thin washer that is stored under the head of the screw that tightens the anvil. That washer is meant to be inserted under the anvil for setting smaller teeth. This...

Lowell,

A playing card is more than .001, more like .005 or more. .001 would be like tissue paper.

The Taintor saw set has numbers on the anvil. The numbers do not correspond to the tooth...

Hi Rick,

Really enjoyed your video. And that's some impressive woodworking also.

Hope your two saws are working out well for you. I was hoping to see them in the video.:)

Neils,

Very ingenious, indeed! Very impressive where the two halves match up so well. Can barely detect where the glue joint is in your picture.

Thanks much for the pictures...

Hi Niels,

Really nice job. Appears to be a marriage between the original D8 shape and the Disston No.7. I'm curious as to how you cut the slot for the blade to match the large radius and the...

Hi Reid,

The wood part of the handle is not easy to remove. The only way I know of is to grind off the end of the long rivet. I have fixed a handle like that, but what I did was to replace that...

Hi Russ,

There's that word again....:D

Looks complicated and a lot of tedious work. That would look great just hanging on a wall as a conversation piece, if nothing else. I say that because you indicated that you were going to toss it.

I'd sure like to jump in on this one.....but I'm not one of the site officials and don't think it's my place to comment on such matters regarding Montgomery's issues.

I think I'll stick to direct...

I was thinking the same thing. Takes me days to make a handle.

We need to get some instructions from Stewie how to speed up the process.

Dave,

I tried my best to find something in your post to disagree with. I couldn't.

I might have to come back here and refer to your list of Personal Rules and Thoughts from time to time. I'm...
