What an unbelievably helpful thread this is. Thank you so much for sharing it. I’m off to eBlag to buy some very cheap saws

I've never heard that, very interesting. Do you have a reference, please?

Hi BugBear

Look at the section, RIP tooth geometry, I've read it somewhere else as well, but I can't remember where.

I think it's rather a good summary of saw geometry.

Perhaps this is a good place to start looking, although deema certainly (IMO) appears to be very well-versed on the topic of saw restoration:
