These coping saw components provide everything, (except the wood and blades) you need to make a compact and highly functional coping saw perfect for cutting curves and removing waste between dovetails. These saws are modeled after classic 18th and 19th century English and American bow saws. Bow saws look surprisingly simple, but work remarkably well and are simple to build. See below for links to full size plans and detailed instructions for building one of your own.
