Tom, would you be willing to send me a piece?

Yes Tom, a piece that I can get a bit about that size is what I'm looking for.

I've been tasked with replacing the left hand leg of a "W" to a mirror box, the leg glues to the mirror glass itself, at my local repair café. The broken leg is part of an intertwining initial, incorporating the letters "A" "J" bound by the letter "W", So, I need a small piece of Box wood to...

As all above, square enough is good enough, either the lateral adjuster, on a modern plane, or a tap with a hammer to the more protruding honed edge, on a wooden plane, will set it right, assuming you have good eyesight. That leads me to what I was taught, as a all to eager young apprentice. On...

You could pop down to the supplier, Howdens you say, see how deep the backs they use are, before doing anything else. This gives your thinking a good start, if nothing else.

Hi Bentontool, didn't realise you were viewing this post. I most certainly will should I require further info, mate.

Johnwalls26, already posted one of them "Dieter Schmid" site: https://www.fine-tools.com/gestell.html. Wonkee Donkey Tools has a good description (with pics) https://www.wonkeedonkeetools.co.uk/handsaws/what-are-the-parts-of-a-hand-mitre-saw. Hears one site in Ozzyland...

I'm unsure where you the content of your post, I am looking only for 550 & 600mm blades, to fit the 2 style of saws in my possession.

Spanner48, thanks for explaining, I only asked re a possible business opportunity I can foresee coming out of this. Re what your doing, I suppose I don't need to tell/remind you about engineering blue, as all the work involved would respond to it's use, if that is you can get a whole saw plate...

Unfortunately no, these are metal frame assemblies, and the problem is not just the blade length as all the varieties of these saws in the UK, are largely unsupported, so it's not gesable really.

Have you had a look into developing hand held power tools, converting them into stationary ones. There would be your saw table, your mitre saw. The planer thicknesser could be replaced width a thickness sander, etc.

I'm wondering if you work in this sector, i.e. making saw blades?

Thanks for the reply Alex, I of course, wrongly, assumed this being a UK named site, you were British, my mistake. Your link is very interesting, but somehow posting the description on the Ebay UK site doesn't turn up anything quite like yours. Now that's got me thinking, spring steel used for...

I've contemplated this, and indeed posted via a reply, to someone on this site "bentontool, see "Tyzack backsaw heresy" who appears to be a guy who thinks outside the box, and could prove useful in my search, should he answer me.

Perhaps i should have referred to them as lance teeth to save you thinking that way, however lance teeth , however close they may be, are not what I seek, so let me expand on my post. Japanese style tooth designed wood saws are normally used in a pull manner, however that's because the blades...

Wow, I don't know whether your looking at another post, one I put up in the hand tool sector, regarding replacement blades for hand mitre saw blades, but if you were interested there's a whole UK market for someone like yourself and your ability to make saws from this steel. Have a look at my...

No I'm not after a pull action, as the fence which the wood sits against is for push, and as for reversing them, that's correct. These blades can be put on either way, as the keyhole fixings/holes are the same both ends. So just to clarify, I'm seeking 550 & 600 (overall lengths) Nobex, are...

Ditto. The amount of clocks one of our volunteers has taken home to fix/set, is mind boggling.

I and some of the Men's Shed I run, have set up a new piece of curriculum for kids with special needs, at our local Academy. Due to school/council restrictions the kids and ourselves are not allowed to use any machinery, for some small projects were involved in. We require replacement blades...

The point of "Economically Repaired" is probably the biggest factor. I run a men's shed, and help run the local repair café, most of what comes into us, would be considered unrepairable, i.e., to little work to price to an advantage, or to complicated to most. But it's extremely rewarding...
