## Description

Eclipse Professional Tools 70-FS1R Fret Saw, Black : desertcart.co.uk: DIY & Tools

Review: Excellent Fret saw - My old fret saw was ancient and missing the clamp screws so I wanted a replacement saw. After reading some of the reviews for this Eclipse saw, I was in two minds whether to buy it or not, but decided to trust the brand. I am SO glad I did; what a little gem! I really put the blade through its paces with the job in hand. Abuse is nearer the truth! Two large letters cut out in 18mm thick pine - not just 5mm ply!!! I also bought a pack of spare blades fully expecting to break a few BUT . . . the blade the saw was fitted with cut both letters and there is still plenty of life in it yet. Needless to say, I am delighted and cannot understand how some of the other users had so many problems! I believe the answer lies in the technique for using a fret saw: use a proper, firmly clamped and flat fret table for the work (easy to make), use the saw with the blade vertical with the handle underneath the work, get comfortably seated and anchor your elbow in your stomach, then use your forearm and elbow only to give the saw a steady up and down motion, turning the work to follow the line of cut. And don't force it - let the blade do the work! Obviously, the thinner the material, the easier the cut, but with care, much thicker materials can be fretted. The saw frame will take any length blade (within reason) by springing the frame by hand. My only issue was that the blade clamp screws were incredibly tight, but they undid ok in. the end with a good firm grip. I would thoroughly recommend this saw.
Review: I thought I snapped the blade first go - The blade came loose on first use. To put it back tighten one end and the bend the arms of the saw in towards each other. Then tighten the other end. They need to be more than finger tight. Bending the arms in gives the blade some necessary tension.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for intricate Dove Tails
*by M***Y on 15 December 2024*

Nice saw, perfect for very intricate work. I used this for part of the process of hand cutting dove tail joints. Comfortable to hold and worked perfectly. Good price for what you get too.
