Jigsaw Tips

As with almost any tool, being aware of a few "tricks of the trade" will make the use of your jigsaw both easier and safer. Here are a few tips that may help:

Metal Saw

1. Wear safety goggles or glasses when using your jigsaw. You won't be doing a lot of "jigsawing" in the future if you hurt your eyes. In addition, if you will be cutting materials that generate a lot of dust, wear a dust mask.

Metal Saw

2. Before beginning a cut, make sure that your cutting line is clearly marked. Simple but important for a good job!

3. If you will be cutting small pieces of material, be sure and fasten down (e.g., with a clamp or clamps) the pieces before you begin cutting. Otherwise, the piece of material will probably slide and mess up your cut. Also, if the material you will be cutting is soft, place a small square of cork or similar material between the clamp and the soft material you will be cutting to prevent the tightened clamp from marring the material's surface.

4. To ensure a smooth and accurate cut, be sure and use the correct jigsaw blade.

5. After turning your jigsaw "on", let the jigsaw come to the full speed you have it set for before beginning your cut. Additionally, in selecting what speed to set your jigsaw on, the general rule of thumb is faster speeds for softer materials and slower speeds for harder materials.

6. Only move your jigsaw blade forward with enough forward pressure to engage the blade with the material and to allow it to cut steadily. Never force your jigsaw blade forward! Let your blade do the work.

7. When cutting metal or other hard materials, you can apply a thin line of lubricant alongside the cutting line to help control cut particles.

8. Always disconnect your jigsaw from its power source before beginning any sort of maintenance or cleaning.

9. Periodically during extended use, wipe off both the jigsaw handle/grip to help ensure your safe control of the jigsaw.

10. Do not use gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, or ammonia to clean your jigsaw as these chemicals may damage your jigsaw's plastic parts.

11. When removing a blade or accessory from your jigsaw after prolonged use of the jigsaw, be careful not to touch the blade or accessory with your bare fingers as the blade/accessory will probably be extremely hot. Either let it cool off or put on protective gloves before you try and remove the blade or accessory.

12. Do not lift or carry your jigsaw by its cord as this may damage your jigsaw's cord connection. Damage to the jigsaw's power cord connection is best done by the jigsaw's factory service center.

I hope these tips help!

What is a Metal Saw?

There are several metal saws on the market today. We will discuss the four most popular types of metal saws. I will answer the question what is a metal saw and how they are used. What is a metal saw? It is a saw designed to cut different types of metal. It is capable of sawing through solid metal pipes, aluminum rails, and even copper. All metal saws have one main purpose, and that is to cut certain types of metal for building, and mostly are used in construction settings.

Metal Saw

Most contractors will explain to you what is a metal saw, and what they will use them for. The saws are used in residential and commercial building use. They are used to cut different metals for different installations. There is a specific metal saw that cut only certain metals. So if you have a particular metal that needs to be cut, you can rent this tool for home use.

Metal Saw

The first saw we need to discuss is the hack saw, and what is a metal saw. This is a metal saw that cuts electrical piping when electrical cord is pulled through. It is also designed to cut thin gauge metal plumbing pipe. One last use is to cut threaded metal rods. This type of rod is used for suspending plumbing piping from concrete ceilings.

What is the metal chop saw? It has a round blade, and cuts solid pipes such as rebar. Rebar is placed in concrete to strengthen the concrete material. There are three blade saws that are used with the chop saw. The blade sizes are a ten inch blade, a twelve inch blade and the last is the fourteen inch size blade. If you choose to use the larger blades, you will be able to cut larger sized pipes.

The band saw, what is a metal band saw? The band saw will cut metal I beams. The I beam is shaped in a capital I and it supports metal framed buildings. Another use of this saw is that it cuts large diameter metal piping which is used for water treatment plants. The pipes are also used for electrical power plates. An electrical power plate is the way the band saw cuts the pipe, it is a level straight cut making welding pipes together easier.

The last saw we will learn about today is the aluminum chop saw. The name of the saw explains exactly what this saw is used for, and that is only to cut aluminum. This saw is used for two main things, to cut aluminum railing to build screen rooms, as well as cutting gutters for the outside eaves of your home. This saw is used primarily used by professionals in construction building work.

So what is a metal saw? At this point you have been shown what a metal saw is and four different metal saws and what they can and can not saw through. It is all about using the right saw for the right metal type. All metal saws will cut through metal as if it were butter. As you are doing your research before you need a metal saw, learn everything you can about the specific saw that you need. Lastly consult a professional, and even hire a professional to do this job for you.

Band Saws - Vertical VS Portable

Choosing the Correct Band Saw for the Job

Metal Saw

Band saws come in two primary styles - vertical and portable. In theory, they are similar - both types use a continuous blade in the form of a band which rotates around two wheels. However, as is often the case, practice differs from theory and in this case, fairly dramatically.

Metal Saw

Vertical Band Saws

Vertical band saw are freestanding, although they may be set on a bench or have a stand on the floor. The blade travels vertically with the wheels arranged one over the other.

Vertical models can be used to cut wood or metal, depending on the blade installed.

In wood shops, these useful and hardworking tools can be used for resawing lumber - what I call scut work, or they can be used to cut intricate shapes - what I call decorative work, as well as everything in between. In terms of the process, because the saw is stationary, the operator is the one manipulating the material being cut through the running blade.

For decorative work, the degree of intricacy achieved will depend on the width of the blade itself (narrower will cut tighter curves), the nature of the material being cut - finer grained rather than loose, and the experience of the operator.

My personal experience with band saws comes from working in theater scene shops where the blades are generally set with wood cutting blades. In that kind of setting, band saws are generally used for decorative work and rarely for recutting lumber. In fact the myriad of materials cut with a wood blade run the gamut from wood to Styrofoam, ethafoam rod, and even objects such as books!

In a metal shop, a vertical model is likely to cut intricate patterns or possibly perform scut work such as cutting bundles of metal rods, or even lengths of conduit.

Again, because the saw itself is stationary, the material will be guided through the saw by the operator.

Portable Band Saws

A portable band saw is a hand held tool, wielded by an operator and generally used to cut stationary objects such as conduit. The operator is moving the saw itself rather than the material being cut. This is directly opposite how a vertical, stationary band saw is used.

Developed for use by contractors, these hardworking power tools are typically fitted with metal cutting blades and are used to cut conduit, steel stock, unistrut, threaded rod, and even concrete.

With the proper blade, a well equipped portable band saw is capable of cleaner and squarer cuts than a reciprocating saw. Again, with the right blade for the job, there will be fewer sparks and cleaner quieter cut. Because they are portable, time is saved since there is little to no set up time - the operator just moves the saw to where it is needed. Recently, cordless models are removing the limitations imposed by the necessity of running extension cords.

While coarse blades with fewer teeth will cut the fastest, they will also tend to rip and grab when cutting thin materials. As with most saws, choosing the correct blade is an important part of using the tool successfully.

A portable band saw is not one that you can pick up and use confidently, right out of the box. They are fairly heavy, weighing in between 13 and 20 pounds, depending on make and model. The key with successful cutting is to allow the weight of the saw to do most of the work, and not rush the cut.

Common Limitations of the Vertical and the Portable

Both types of band saws are limited by the width and depth of the throat. This limitation is called the cutting capacity and it restricts the actual size of the material that can be cut.

While there are similarities between the two types of saw, there are far more differences in HOW they are used and WHAT they are used for. They are definitely NOT interchangeable and it is important to educate yourself about which you may need for a particular job.

Basics of Roof Building

Getting to know about laying roof is simply laying of tiles in a specific pattern to prevent from leakage. This is not the case. Better roof construction is more that it seems. It actually seems about it is about fixing and preventing leaks. The following conditions are necessary for making a roof durable and strong.

Metal Saw

The basic function of roof is to shield against harsh weather elements, moisture, hence preserving the structural and the interiorly components of the house. For purpose of the house inspection, whole of the roof scenario primarily consists of roof flashing, chimney and coverings.

Metal Saw

Roofing
Basically there are two types associated with the roof construction flat and picticted (also called sloped). Separate pieces of shingling material overlapping each other are used to stop water from entering the roof. Roofs that are flat are primarily water tight membrane that have sufficient downward slope to allowing water to slide away.

Slope present of the roof decides the life expectancy of material used in building of roof. Life of the roof is dependent on the many factors such as quality of work done, wear and tear from tree barks and last but not the least material used. For example east or north will have less wear tear than roof facing west and south.

Slate or cement roofs are much more durable than standard asphalts shingle (plus are expensive).

After building a sturdy and strong underlayment, further step is to concentrate on constructing water proof roof. It is clearly most vital aspect of roof building.We must lay down a water proof on the required structure. Mostly tar paper or felt is employed for covering of the plywood laid. The thing to be done is fasten them safely with considering overlapping to prevent water from leaking into. The last step on our way to construct a long lasting and attractive roof is flashing. That is followed by shingle and the end sealants.

At the end whenever you will reconstruct your roof just keep in mind that the material used by your contractor should be genuine and you should keep hawks eye on the proceedings of roof construction, this will ensure you that the construction is done according to you without any drawbacks as if it can't be built again and again.
