    Hello, the job was very well done! I'm really considering improving this type of frame saw because it has potential. I believe that the sliding saw blade holders should be additionally tightened with screws. Then the saw blade would be very rigidly mounted in the frame. His jumping up and down seems to confirm my point. Of course, its length influences this phenomenon. The analysis of the functioning of typical frame saws leads me to believe that the description and the validity of the mentioned improvement are correct.
    To sum up, the easiest way would be to install the second saw blade tension on the opposite side. Moreover, the frame for such a long saw seems to be too stiff.
    Congratulations and best regards 😀.

    Great video, thanks for sharing. I 'm also turning some beech log into lumber with hand tool, mainly for making planes and tool handle. I usually split the log in half fist then go from there, because splitting review the grain( twist and bend) and I can make my plane tool handle accordingly to have less run out. I think if you use the saw on push stroke and lay the log horizontal while sawing vertical( like pit saw) it might help to stay on the line.

    These saws seem to cut better on the push stroke, rocking your weight forward when pushing the saw; this helps you get a longer stroke and use more of the blade too. You are using mostly your arms and it will get very tiring that way, and it's not efficient; you have a saw about 1m long and youre not using half the blade. The blade may be why you used it on the pull stroke mostly, a bandsaw blade usually has a positive rake on the tooth (the tooth leans forward) this makes it very aggressive and hard to use, itll want to "stick" in the wood becasue the tooth is so aggressive. When you sharpen the saw, file away some of the rake at the front of the tooth, aim to file 0⁰ of rake into the teeth (the front of the teeth should be straight up and down, 90⁰ to the toothline, not with the tooth leaning forward) this will make the saw easier to use and it wont want to "grab" as much 😁
    If your saw "sticks" or "stops" at the same point on the toothline everytime, it means your blade needs to be "jointed"; there is a tooth that is higher than the teeth in front of it and when that taller tooth hits the wood the saw stops. To fix this you'll need to use a flat file and run it along the tips of the teeth to make them all straight and the same height. File until you see a flat spot on the tip of every tooth, it's normal if some teeth have a bigger flat spot; these are the teeth that were too tall. Then you'll need to sharpen it with a large saw file, taking half of the flat spot on each tooth away before you move to the next gullet........ the file will cut the back of one tooth and the front of another tooth at the same time, so it's important that you only take half the flat spot away before you move to the next gullet; this will keep the teeth the same height. Moving left to right, from back to front of the blade, keep the left side of your file vertical so you get your 0⁰ of rake on the tooth and file the tooth who's face (front cutting edge that faces forward) is set away from you (this might not be the first tooth) skip one tooth so the next tooth face is still set away from you. When you have got to the toe of the blade flip it around and work from right to left, always from the back of the blade towards the front, this time the right side of the file will be vertical to create your 0⁰ rake and file every tooth you skipped last time (every second tooth) the set should still be leaning away from you...... the file cuts better on the front of the tooth that leans away from you, filing a tooth that leans toward you will "chatter" and the front of the tooth that does the cutting wont be as good.
    It's not hard to file a saw, but it is daunting if you've never done it before. If this is the case; go online or to somewhere that sells old tools, buy the cheapest old saw you can find and learn to file that before you move on to a saw that you intend to use. It's easier than it seems, it seems nearly "scary" if you've never done it before..... but trust me; it is easier than you think to sharpen saws 😁

      Wow, this is a very informative comment. I'm planning to build another saw with a much stiffer blade and I will surely be sharpening it following your suggestions.
      It might take a while till I find the time though...

    • @hellomate639
      @hellomate639 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Something tells me that this type of saw can cut equally on push or pull, but it depends entirely on how you're using it. I.e. pushing against the tops of the fibers or with the fibers. Pushing in most bench configurations will result in a better push stroke.
      I'm planning on building one to be more of a pull stroke because in general your pull muscles are stronger and more built for endurance. I also train on the trowing machine, so I want to translate that movement into efficient sawing.

      Questa è la prima e l'unica che io abbia mai usato, quindi non sono affatto esperto.
      L'idea che mi sono fatto però è che per fare le tavole dai tronchi se non si è in due persone non è il massimo.
      Il prossimo esperimento per segare i tronchi è costruire una sega di quelle che usavano una volta i giapponesi (前挽大鋸) che si usa da soli e mi sembra efficace, anche se probabilmente molto stancante.
      Per dividere le tavole invece una sega così penso vada bene, solo che quella che ho fatto io è troppo grande. Dovrei rifare i due listelli orizzontali così da renderla più maneggevole.

    Put a flat stick on the flat side of the blade. At either end.
    (A winding stick). Perpendicular to the blade.
    Sight down the blade to see if the sticks are on the same plane.
    You may have to bend the saw blade to saw straight and true.

    Bel lavoro! Anch'io avevo costruito una sega a telaio Roubo usando una lama da sega a nastro, con sistema di tensione a vite, ma con scarsi risultati... la ragione è che la lama della sega a nastro è troppo flessibile per questo tipo di sega e non si riesce ad effettuare un taglio preciso. Purtroppo su Internet c'è pochissima letteratura su questo tipo di sega per stavolare, che ho lungamente cercato, fin quando ho trovato un signore che me ne ha regalate due, molto antiche, e ho potuto capire perfettamente come sono fatte. La lama è spessa (2 mm e più) e rigida. I denti sono larghi e hanno la forma che ricorda quella d'un onda del mare. Sono affilati nella parte concava e superiore, alternativamente da un lato e dall'altro. Il telaio è in pioppo o in abete, l'importante è che sia d'un legno leggero. E va usata al contrario di come la vedo nel video, cioè tagli spingendo e non tirando.
    Spero d'aver dato consigli utili,
    Saluti

    • @WhyDontYouBuildit
      @WhyDontYouBuildit  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Grazie degli ottimi consigli. Prima o poi vorrei rifarne una versione migliorata. Magari partendo da una striscia di acciaio per ricavarne una lama più spessa, come giustamente suggerisci.
      Non ho ben capito però cosa intendi quando dici che i denti sono affilati alternativamente a destra e a sinistra. Visto che la funzione è quella di tagliare lungo vena io farei un'affilatura fatta "a scalpello" e denti stradati alternativamente a destra e sinistra, no?

    • @stefanocalandri4027
      @stefanocalandri4027 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@WhyDontYouBuildit Allora... bisognerebbe che ti mandassi una foto della lama, varrebbe più di tante parole, ma non so come fare... Immagina che ciascun dente abbia la forma di un onda simile a quella della "Grande Onda di Kanagawa" di Hokusaki... è un paragone un po' così, ma è per capirci.. i denti vanno affilati nella parte concava (la "gola dell'onda"), ponendo la lima tonda inclinata da un lato per un dente, e dall'altro lato per il dente succesivo, alternativamente. E poi si affila anche la parte alta del dente (la "cresta dell'onda"), sempre alternando il lato su cui si lima. Ripeto, forse con un immagine si capisce subito.
      L'idea di farti la lama con una lastra d'acciaio è una bella idea, anche io ci avevo pensato, ma l'acciaio giusto è difficile da trovare.... e anche una volta che l'hai trovato, costa un bel po', a meno che tu non abbia la fortuna di trovarne uno scarto. Ho trovato che vendevano minimo 5 m di lastra larga 8 cm a 100 euro... Insomma, è una bella sfida riuscire a costruirsi una sega di Roubo '^o^
      Però puoi provare a cercare un'azienda che produca o venda acciai e chiedere se hanno uno scarto di 1 metro o 2... oppure trovare una sega di Roubo autentica, ma non è un'impresa facile. Per vedere come erano fatte e come stavolavano i tronchi, visto che in italiano non si trova niente di niente, cerca in francese: "scie des scieurs de long".

  • @James_T_Kirk_1701
    @James_T_Kirk_1701 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you use a push stroke the lead edge is facing you not behind on the other side of the long and it’s easier to follow a line. Also using a broad head hatchet and hewing one side for a keeping plane makes this a completely different experience.

    • @WhyDontYouBuildit
      @WhyDontYouBuildit  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I don't remember exactly, probably about 30 minutes. But Being by myself I had to check both sides and take a breath often. Also bear in mind that this is pine. Recently I milled some oak, about the same size, maybe a touch bigger, and it took me much much longer. If you ask me I'd say that it's worth the experience, even just to appreciate the amount of work behind how things were made in the past. But if you just need your logs milled I'm not sure if it's the best way. It really depends on you. If you decide to give it a try anyway let me know how it was!

      It depends on how much of the wood you care about. There's a tool called a log dog thats basically just a length of rebar with a one inch spike on each end, like a giant staple. You can spike to a bigger log to keep it from moving. Me, I would probably find a way to secure it with ratcheting load straps, or a chain binder.
