Handsaw Re-Toothing guide. Hand saw sharpening.

This is my "handsaw Re-toothing guide" and is used with a hacksaw to accurately cut notches into a saw plate, these notches can then be used to locate a saw file to begin shaping the teeth. I’m aware this isn't a new idea but does have some benefits over cutting the teeth with a file alone. For someone like me who only re-tooths saws occasionally it's made the process much easier with consistent results. I have used it on many saws now and they have all come out great. It’s mainly intended for smaller handsaws in the 24 to 12 tpi range, though it could possibly be used for small panel/rip saws as well. Thanks for watching.
