Hi - following on from my earlier post regarding Bow Saws, I spotted this one for sale on Ebay and managed to buy it for £4.27 + £6 postage. The blade is apparently pretty blunt but hopefully the rest should be serviceable. I thought it would be useful to examine how one was made historically prior to attempting to make one myself.
I just wish this weather would warm up a bit so I can get into my workshop
:-(
The seller says that the bow saw takes 13" blades - I am hoping that the saw can be modified to take the 12" ones supplied by Gramercy. Maybe shorten the cross arm? I am looking forward to receiving it this next week.
