Ron's saws are tedius, boring, and lack creativity.
(said no one, ever! )
Gorgeous work, Ron! Here's a suggestion - You, Isaac, and a couple of the other sawmakers here should each send in one of your signature saws to a photographer and have a professional level poster made of them all together. That'd be something I'd want to hang near my saw till.

Functional art! Man, do we have some talented members here at Woodnet. Great job, Ron!

Taking a break from the dungeon. Decided to throw a Tiger into the mix. 12" x 2" dovetail, 15ppi 8* rake, 0* fleam. Long story short. I had a couple of messed up 12" X 0.020" plates. So I nipped them off. One became a couple of scrapers. The other begged for mercy. So it became a dovetail. That's all. I promise. Should I make more of these?
At some point I hope to post a video of how I test my saws. I have made a couple of videos that didn't turn out so well. Seems some dummy forgot about the vibration rasping a handle causes while the camera is sitting on the work bench. OOps! Looked like an earth quake hit.

Stunners. I like your clean and elegant designs.

Now that is a great idea

Wow, that half back is spectacular! I must admit I don't care for the toe on the dovetail spine, but the handle is as nice as they come. Thanks for showing us!

My sentiments exactly. I always look forward to your pic posts!
