How do you sharpen a bow saw blade if possible?
They get so dull so fast. And i need to do more without going to the hardware store. As well as they are not as good as in years past. Plus the cost is not worth it all the time.
these tools are required to sharpen the bow saw blade:
a flat file, a saw vise or alternatively two boards with clamps, a saw file and a saw set.
there are four stages for sharpening the saw blade
trimming, shaping , setting and sharpening the teeth
trimming:
fix the saw in the saw vise and files back and forth over the row of the teeth with a flat file until a top surface has been produced on the point of every tooth.
shaping:
The saw blade is now treated to even filing with a 3-sided file, so that each tooth without exception receives 3 or 4 strokes of the file overall. The process is repeated until all the teeth are the same shape and the base of the teeth is in a neat line.
setting:
Setting a saw involves bending alternate teeth outwards to either side, making the cut wider than the blade, so that the latter does not jam
sharpening:
a three square saw file is necessary to do sharpening.saw blade must be clamped in the saw vise. The file should just be able to pass above the jaws.
It is guided horizontally through the gap between the teeth, at right angles to the blade when sharpening a rip cut saw.
when sharpening file must be rotated horizontally at 60 degree angle.
The back and front of two teeth should be filed at once, lifting the file slightly as it returns.
The edges of the saw file are slightly rounded to enable the base of the teeth to take a slight curve.
