Coping Saw Instructions
This coping saw is easy to use.
Install the Coping Saw Blade
Loosen the saw by screwing the handle of
the saw counter-clockwise several turns while holding the wing
nut.
The blade should be mounted so that the blade does the most cutting when the saw is pulled.
Place
the pins on the end of the blade into the holder grooves at
each end of the saw. Unscrew the handle more if needed. Hold
the blade in place with the wing nut and screw the handle clockwise
until tight.
Rough Cut and Shape Your Pinewood Derby Car
Trace your block on a piece of paper then draw your car design
inside the block trace. Cut out the design then trace it on
both sides of your car block.
Put the the car block in a vice while cutting and shaping.
Cut out the car design while trying to stay close to the trace
lines. When half way through, turn the car over and start
cutting from the other end.
Use a wood rasp to round the edges and add more shape to your
Pinewood Car.
Finish with sandpaper.
