Roubo Style Frame Saw for Barbie

This is a collaboration with Barbie of all trades on Instagram. I reached out and asked if there was anything that barbie needed for her shop and was told she needed a Roubo Style Frame Saw. this will be the 5th frame saw I have made but defiantly the smallest at 1:7 scale.

Yes! Scale tools are cool!! Also sometimes still can be useful. Like the miniature veritas router and other 1/3rd size tools!

You did a great job!! As always!

[ryanallthewiser]

You nailed that! Great sized tool!! Fun to watch. I’m sure your Melody was excited!!

[MakerDeLoach]

Yes sir awesome Love the use of the ruler

[lesliewakelin]

Really innovative. A joy to watch. Thank you.

You are dead accurate with hand saws. Many people probably don’t appreciate how difficult that is. Very nice project!

Made me excited to build my big one (I built a smaller one years ago and purchased the blade and hardware for the bigger one... and it’s been sitting on a shelf for years since I could almost always figure it out with the medium sized one). Beautiful work!

🤣👊😲👍😎Wow!! Nice Job!!! So much detail!!! Impressive Sir!!!

[MCsCreations]

Pretty beautiful work, James! Really nicely done!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Now that was pretty cool. If you're looking to do some more scaled projects, a block plane would be pretty cool to see I think. Awesome job on the frame saw.

cracking job, I assume you have decided not to mount a metalworking vice on a shoe, I would suggest you try it, I am always popping mine in and out of my end vice; it makes working on metal hardware much easier.

Thanks James, watches this loads, 😄 I m making a frame saw out of an old Stanley mitre saw thingy. Will look like the one on your wall. Anyhow a question. Is there a way to make a roubo saw without a kit?

[springersshop]

I think that is the biggest saw I have seen In my life

[ijessup]

this was absolutely delightful. also, barbie standing in a bench dog hole made me giggle

Again, enjoyable 15 minutes of shear enthusiasm... as we are on the topic of roubo frame saws, I have a question for you and/or any of your subscribers: based on the pattern I had downloaded from blackburntools, I have the stock for the frame ready to build my own frame saw. Unfortunately, I am unable to get in touch with Isaac now, only hoping he is really busy, and not affected from COVID-19. As I know that you have built a frame saw using his hardware, I was wondering if you have any idea if Isaac is still in business. Are there any other suppliers for the necessary hardware incl. the blade? Badaxetoolworks also seems to be closed or really busy. Any reply, suggestion will be greatly appreciated, sorry for the long text, thanks in advance

This is a bit off topic, but I might as well ask since I'm here and the question is in my head:
Is there a trick to lining up blades in a honing guide? I just recently got one..
I tried measuring the distance but it was pretty useless because I don't know the exact distance for each tool anyway. Then I tried lining it up by eye so that the bevel is flat on the stone and then locking the guide, but usually I end up having to grind off a crapload of metal before I get to a total flat bevel. When I line it up visually it seems like the angle must change slightly when I put pressure on it and start honing, and then I have to go all the way to get a flat bevel..
Whereas when doing it by hand you pretty much always know when the bevel is flat on the stone.
Measuring the exact distance for each blade would probably work, but then you have to remember the distances for each blade/bevel/tool, this seems a pain, and I'm just not that organised!
Maybe lining up the bevel by eye will eventually work when I get used to it.
At the moment it's taking a lot longer to sharpen tools using the honing guide than sharpening manually. I'm thinking of just sticking with the manual method and just using the guide every so often when my bevels go out of whack.
Is there something I'm missing, some easy way to make sure the bevel is flat on the stone when it's in the guide?
I mean, even if you're off by a fraction it will take ages to grind the bevel totally flat again, and it's a total PITA.. A lot of needless grinding.

Nice. What will happen to metric ruler cut-off? (European here asking ;)

[micheldumont]

Good job for fun ! et un établi après ???

[muon]

make a functional model wooden joiner plane

[tonyennis]

Cool. But you didn't resaw anything with it. Your argument is invalid.
