I think that I will need to resharpen the ripcut blade again. It cuts better then before but I am still slow with it, compared to the ryoba saw, wich is only 1/3 as long as the frame saw.
Using the frame saw, surely gets your blood pumping and will develop some muscle. Something completly different than sitting at a desk in front of a keyboard the whole day.
I’ve started reading my first book about woodworking:
It is a book about the original book with the same title, which was released in 183X. The original text is a story about Thomas, an apprentice in a woodworking shop, to show other boys what to expect if you think about an apprenticeship and becoming a joiner and cabinetmaker in that time.
The new book sets the historical context, contains the original book with a lot of footnotes and in the second part, contains the rebuild of three projects as described in the original text.
I am not that far in, about 50 pages but so far it seems to be an interesting and entertaining book.
