ideas for making a casing for a japanese ryoba saw
id like to carry around me trusty saw because although it doesn have a
wide enough set in the teeth to cut to big logs its very sharp and cuts fast and is very good to pick up small pieces of branch wood i see that people trimmed when im going about my usualy business. i need to make myself a easy case that will protect the blade and saw and also the bag id put it in. ive thought of using leather and cloth but because of the shape it would be very hard take off. id like it to be easy and fast to take off. itd be best if it would be able to just slip off. i was thinking of using two very thin pieces of wood and tying them together with a thin cord. does any one here have any other suggestions? thanx ~B for a pic of the saw http://www.ehardwicks.com/product_li...O-610_zoom.htm |

Maybe you should get one of the portable buck saws, they are made for
wet branch wood, and are very compact and quickly put together. http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.a...71&cat=1,42884 Have fun and take care Leo Van Der Loo bizHB wrote: id like to carry around me trusty saw because although it doesn have a wide enough set in the teeth to cut to big logs its very sharp and cuts fast and is very good to pick up small pieces of branch wood i see that people trimmed when im going about my usualy business. i need to make myself a easy case that will protect the blade and saw and also the bag id put it in. ive thought of using leather and cloth but because of the shape it would be very hard take off. id like it to be easy and fast to take off. itd be best if it would be able to just slip off. i was thinking of using two very thin pieces of wood and tying them together with a thin cord. does any one here have any other suggestions? thanx ~B for a pic of the saw http://www.ehardwicks.com/product_li...O-610_zoom.htm |

It came packaged in a plastic sleeve, with a split-pin holding the blade centered in the sleeve, so the teeth couldn't chew up the sides of the sleeve. If yours has a similar hole, you could just use that and a split-pin(or bolt/wingnut, cup hook, shaped dowel) to fix it to an appropriately-recessed board. Maybe use a velcro cable-tie for the handle end. HTH /M |

Small diameter rubber tubing with a slit down the side? My pull saw came with a molded peice that was very similar to that, and it works fine in the toolbag. |
