Circular Saw
Saws
Of all woodworking tools, saws, are the most used and all saws fall into one of two categories, being power saws and hand saws. All jobs can be undertaken using just a hand saw and while power saws have made woodworking easier they are not necessary.
As saws are used so often it is particularly important to purchase good quality saws. Spending a little more on a good quality saw from a reputable manufacturer is always advisable as it will last long longer and perform better.
Listed below are some of the many different types of hand and power saws you can purchase:
Crosscut Saw
As the name may suggest the crosscut saw is used to cut across the grain of wood and is a general purpose saw. The crosscut saw has between six to eight sharpened teeth per inch which are set alternately left to right and the cross cut is usually twenty five inches.
Tenon Saw
Woodworkers use the tenon saw as an all purpose saw and is also called a back saw. The tenon saw is a general purpose saw that is known to be one of the easiest saws to control and is therefore used for finer projects. The saw is approximately twelve inches long and has fourteen to seventeen teeth.
Coping Saw
The coping saw is used to cut curves in wood and has a thin, but sturdy blade with fine teeth. The blade is able to cut in any direction as the blade angle is adjustable.
Portable Circular Saw
The power circular saw is the most used of all power saws and known for its ability to cut quickly. Blades are generally five to nine inches in diameter and for parallel cuts a straight fence can be attached to the saw. The blade can be adjusted to different depths for grooving and the plate tilted for angled cuts.
Jigsaw
Jigsaws are mostly used to cut curved lines but can also be used to cut straight lines. Traditionally the blades of jigsaws move up and down, however, some of the latest models have started using an orbital action. The blades can be easily changed and there are various types that are able to be used for different projects.
