Frame Saws, Bow Saws, Turning Saws

The frame saw can be used in many applications, for rip cut (resawing), cross cut and sawing curves.

The frame saw may have been largely supplanted by machines these days, but it still gives the experienced user an easy and fast solution to many and varied problematic sawing jobs.

The sawblades for the various frame saws can be used in exchange for each other in the frames as long as the length is the same.

ECE's frame saw's central bar is of light, elastic tropical wood, and a butterfly nut on the thread at the end of a steel rod is used to exert the tension.

Important: frame sawblades must be released after use, because the strain on the various parts is intense when they have been tightened.

Replacement blades are kept in stock for all the saws. Have a look to the instruction How to sharpen saw blades
