Galoots
I have an old Disston rip saw and was using it to cut some wood to
make shutters. It started decently sharp, but after a dozen or so
boards, it wasn't cutting so well. I only had a few more boards to go
and decided to power through them and sharpen the saw later. Then I
hit some wavy grain, a tooth caught, and the saw blade buckled. It
doesn't have a kink, but it's now got a permanent bend to it. If I put
a straight edge on the blade from the heel to the toe, the middle
deviates about 1/4" to 3/8".
Before beating on the blade willy nilly with a hammer, does anyone
have any suggestions for removing the bend?
Thank you,
Chris
