2 Tools to care for saws

Saw teeth have to be polished from time to time because the teeth are worn down and the sharpness becomes worse as they are used. This work is called a simulator. To do Saw Filing, first correct the distortion of the saw, put out clams, and then polish it. For the distortion of the saw body, place the saw body on the deposit and hit it with a hammer to fix it.

There are two ways to put out clams. One is to use eye swings, with saw teeth sandwiched between the interrupts at the end of the eye swing, bent left and right to produce clams. The other is the method of using clam hammer, where the saw teeth are placed on the edge of the slab and hit with clam hammer every once. Turning over the saw and hitting the teeth of the person who did not hit first can put clams on the left and right.

When performing the Saw Filing, first put the saw body on the sawing board so that only the tip of the tooth appears, and then fix it with a wess below the board. Depending on the application of the saw, the grinding angle and the cutting blade inclination are polished with a scrubbing or scrubbing. There are a variety of uses, mainly Saw Filing for grinding teeth, and a relatively large millet is used.
