The hand held ‘deep frame fret saw’, is used to cut and shape thin natural wood and boards. It is also used to shape veneers for marquetry and inlaying. The blade is clamped in position, by tightening the wing nuts. The teeth point towards the handle, which means cutting takes place, as the hand is pulled towards the user, or more usually, downwards. CUTTING DEPTH - 300mm |
USING THE DEEP FRAME FRET SAW |
When using the deep frame fret saw to cut thin material: Support the material on the surface of a bench, with one hand. The material must be held down firmly. The second hand controls the movement of the saw. Cutting takes place as the saw is pulled downwards. |
