Kerfing Saw, How to Make

In my humble opinion the Kerfing Saw is one of the least valued tools, but when you have it, it's a wonder how many things it allows you to do.

Taking into account my budget for my hobbies, I decided to take an economic saw that I had in the workshop and make some tweaks to convert it.

Preparing the handle to attach to the shoulder board with a large dado. And make it the more ergonomic possible.

The Finishes

Some adjust to a better fit, a little bit of Homemade beeswax and olive oil and final assembly.
