Welcome Chuckles,do you prefer that alias,or Hacksaw?.....I gather from your post that you've been on this forum before,so are you actually a knowledgeable old timer in disguise,or a rank beginner like me?

I to have been doing this for a long time. Am new to this sight. Have no clue how it really works.An not sure if they have a chat area. Recently retired an back to building longrifles


Been into muzzeloading for almost 40+ years fairly new to scratch building. But prescribes just seem to take all the frustrations out.So to me it's not as much fun. Would like to meet some. people on here to learn more. Maybe in time. Recently retired so have time to learn. Special thanks to Hoot AL for his advice..Good site

Hacksaw welcome. I think it's great you're learning to set and sharpen saws and scythes. I remember my paternal grandfather talking about that. I have often thought that in todays society there isn't much of value to learn to get you thru the day. But it would take three lifetimes to learn the skills of yesterday. Of course not all the folks from the past could do it all either. But you get the point.


I never have been much for drinking the kool-aid.It's not in my nature.
