Description: |
| This unusual saw is reminiscent of Lemuel Hedge's 1851 patent 8,056. This particular saw is intended to use high-speed steel blades, which had proved to be good for reciprocating hacksaw machines but could not handle the flexing when used to make bandsaw blades. This patent claimed "to achieve unusual and markedly successful and useful results." Like the Hedge patent, the idea is that the blade is never bent when under tension, which apparently greatly reduced blade breakage. |
