Hacksaw
The hacksaw consists of an adjustable metal frame, a turned wooden handle and metal-cutting blade. The length can be adusted by removing a pin and sliding one part of the frame back or forwards inside another part. Two pins at each end of the frame hold the blade, which is secured by turning a thumbsrew. Used in the wheelwright's workshop for cutting off bolts and similar work.
