Folding frame/bow saw: my take

[vestlenning]

Inspired by others making these saws I just had to give it a go. Used 16 mm laminated oak and headless screws as dowels. Finish is turpentine and linseed oil.

Good job there, you'll enjoy using that more than something you've bought or borrowed.

 

[Harvestman]

Neat work. I like that, and oak is lovely wood and tough too.

 

[Nativewood]

That's beaut, very well done indeed!
