Swanhead Bowsaw
Oct 24, 2012
Woodworker: T.R. Fisher
Since his retirement from cabinetmaking, Fisher has developed a keen interest in both wood carving and antique hand tools. While reading The Art of Fine Tools by Sandor Nagyszalanczy (The Taunton Press, 2000), Fisher spied an antique swanhead bowsaw and saw an opportunity to combine both of his passions. His version of the saw, which has a 10-in.-long blade, is made of rosewood and is finished with wax polish.
