Graphical Construction Glossary >> Tools. >> Hand Tools >> Coping Saws
A small and cheap saw, but part of every carpenter's or joiner's tool kit. At the right is a shot of a saw cutting a scribe on a peice of wooden cornice or scotia. So far I have not seen any power tool that can do the same jobs as these saws. I have seen guys using electric jig saws and 100mm grinders etc. but they do not come close to using one of these for speed and accuracy.
A detail at the handle end of the blade, showing the direction of the blade. The teeth point to the handle and the cutting is done on the pull stroke. More information on scribing and how to use a coping saw. If you didn't find exactly what you are looking for try this search tool that will search the site and the web. "What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience? "When we build, let us think that we build for ever."John Ruskin 1819-1900 |
