I made a framing saw from a kit at a Lee Valley workshop, and it was fabulous. It's great as a coping saw, cutting curves, but the thin blade makes it hard to cut a straight line. So I made another one on my own, using a chunk of bandsaw blade, and this was better for straight cuts. But trying to resaw a 1" thick boards into two 1/2" inch boards was impossible. The cut would wander all over the place. I would practically wind up with veneer. I saw a number of articles and YouTube videos about making a re-sawing saw, and I decided to make one. But I'm not keen on kits. For one thing I'm stingy, and don't like giving away the profit. Besides, it doesn't feel like I made it, if someone else provided the challenging parts. So I made my own. The saw blade is cut from one of three rusty handsaw blades I got for $10 off Facebook Marketplace. I used an angle grinder to cut it out, a little over two inches wide, and to grind three-to-the-inch teeth
