Did your wife put it away for you?
No...if she did, it would hva been spilled all over the place....
That’s wood lube
Maybe I’ll be up for mallet swap
I admire your stamina, Marc. To use the same handsaw for both grain directions demands a lot of it. I have a dedicated handsaw for ripping and another for crosscutting and I can’t get either one to work both ways.
You need four saws. A hardwood rip and crosscut, and a softwood rip and crosscut
I've got a rip that will do fine crosscutting as long as you don't mind a coarse finish on your cut. I'd have to measure as I played with the tooth geometry a bit. Eventually I'll have a set of four as soon as I get around to cleaning and sharpening a bunch of turn of the century Disston D-8's
That Disston is a great saw. My dad had one but my brother got it.You need four saws. A hardwood rip and crosscut, and a softwood rip and crosscut

I've got about a dozen, none cost me more than 3.00 just need to get them clean and sharp
This saw was hanging in the back of the garage when we moved in, rusty and covered with paint
Yea but he's an inch to the right off his line....
But when you're liquored up you see double. So maybe he is on his line...
It all depends on what eye you close...Yea but he's an inch to the right off his line....

Barry, you need to get out more often and talk to real woodworkers.

Yes, but Brink is uniformly 1" off that line which means he is cutting where he intended. That is a heck of a job on that glue-up with that saw. The set must be perfect and skill of the sawyer is top notch. In the old days, the guys like Brink used a frame saw to uniformly cut 1/16" veneer. We're wimps with our motorized tools.
And try it without an opposable thumb

I see in triple.
I close them both
Spoken like a true 21st century woodworker. If it's not attached to a 3hp motor, it's not for woodworking these days.What's a hand saw
In the shop today I re-sawed a nice 1" thick of rosewood for an Etsy customer in California. She makes customized artist sketch pads for the rich people and uses wood for the covers. Was 9.75" wide and 13 long. Turned out great with two pieces 3/16ths thick and one 1//4" thick. No reaction wood in it which surprised me.
