Saving q wide plank or any
piece Of lumber that is wider than
the saw itself can develop into
a very hard piece of manual labor.
That applies particularly when
the lumber is green or of a very
tough variety. All seems to 60
well with the average amateur
carpenter who is cutting up shelv-
ing. until the saw gets well into
the wood, and at this point it
starts to balk and frequently to
bind hard.
The effort now needed is about
10 times that which was required
for the first few inches of cut.
The answer of course, is that the
sides of the saw are rubbing
against the sides of the cut in
the plank. and the friction is
greater as the saw cuts deeper.
Every professional carpenter
and woodworker has the answer
