I handfiled and set the teeth on the plate to 16 TPI (crosscut). This project was just about as finiky as building a model. Anymore I need a LED headlamp and 2.50 glasses to keep the saw teeth in focus. |

rayl | Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A | Reference | 27-Feb-15 09:40 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb600/33307.jpg) | Views : 470 | I was feeling burnt out on the XF-92 last week, so decided to catch up on other projects. A freind had brought over a old back saw for me to refurbish. I eneded up keeping the folded spine and replacing the saw plate with some 0.032" spring steel and makinig a new handle out of some localy harvested Black Walnut. |

Motorcycles were out and what was left of the snow melted. Today: Blizzard warning with 10" expected, all the schools closed and (-) 16 deg for tonight. The old saying in Iowa: "If you don't like the weather just wait an hour it will change". GErturde and Heathcliffe are once again bemoaning the fact that they did not head to warmer climes. |
