Saw Kits All kits supplied with every component necessary, with the selected PPI cut into the blade and ready to be sharpened and set. If desired, we can also sharpen for a nominal $10 charge. Learning to sharpen is a challenge, but with properly spaced teeth is not too difficult. New saw sets are available which make setting the teeth easy and we have included instructions. Files are also available from several suppliers, or we can include one in your kit--as well as a saw set--for an additional charge. Brass is fitted, but not chamfered. Tools not included. Full instructions provided. For a current of a PDF of the instructions, click here. A pictorial of shaping a panel saw handle is here. |
