I recently built myself a couple of continental European style frame saws, also called bow saws. I built one rip and one crosscut. The only difference between the two were the number of teeth per inch of the blades. The blades were purchased from Highland Woodworking and are 700mm replacement blades for the ECE frame saws. Rather than making my typical style video where I do lots of talking and explaining, I decided to just let the camera roll while I shut up and worked. So enjoy the silence.

I'm a passionate woodworking enthusiast of over 30 years, with an interest in the methods of pre-industrial joiners and cabinetmakers. I'm a furniture maker, teacher, and author, and I share my thoughts and experiences with the goal of educating and inspiring others who are pursuing the craft of traditional woodworking. In addition to writing about and teaching traditional woodworking, I also build commission pieces for customers, and speak at woodworking shows and seminars.
