This isn't my normal tool restoration, but it'll be a fun project. It might take a while, as I'm still working on building the shop. Going through a shed today, I found this one man bucksaw. It's clearly a champion tooth one man crosscut that's actually not in bad shape. The handle's trash and it's got some surface rust, but I can't find any pitting and the teeth largely look good as well. I'm sort of betting it's a Disston, but I can't make out the stamping (at least not yet), so I'm going to go with a Disston handle shape.
Now I need to find jointing and setting tools for big saws, I don't think my existing tools will do this, at all
I could actually use this once completed, I've got a lot of mesquite on my property and they like to fan out and split. So I have a lot of logs to break down for firewood.
I also found a two man crosscut, but that's a whole different story.
