saw sharpening dvd ?

It’s not a DVD, but it is free (and DVD length, does that count?). Andy (AKA Brit here on LumberJocks) posted a video on YouTube for saw sharpening. I highly recommend it:

He blogged about posting the video here: http://lumberjocks.com/Brit/blog/36332
His whole Saw Talk blog has some good information in it as well. Lots of rehabs

x2 to the above post and a huge vouch for the video giving you all the proper information required to make an old saw sing again.

There’s a ton of information there.

-- They say many people die because of alcohol. They never realized how many of them are born because of it.

Wow guys thanks! Cant wait to sift through these. I just never get over how ppl respond on here. It is truley a supportive environment !

Check the local flea markets and antique shops for an old saw filing vise. It will make your work much easier and they are usually not too expensive.

Apart from a decent collection of japanese saws, I just buy throw away saws nowadays.It works for me and I get reasonable mileage from one of these realatively cheap and nasty saws (in the eyes of the elite wood-gods )LOL Alistair

He’s a woodwright shop video I think Roy does a good job explaining and uses oversized examples to help under stand. http://video.pbs.org/video/2365021491/

Another vote for Andy The Brit, thorough and knowledgeable. He also has great stuff about bits and braces.
