    My favourite tool must be my piercing saw frames, I use a range of
    six saw frames, each with different frame depths.My frames are mostly
    German made and I use Swiss, Grobet Vallorbe saw blades, of sizes 0
    down to 6-0. I know that modern technology CNC and some Laser
    machines can do the same effect as piercing, but unless you are
    making a run of identical items, these machines are very costly and
    as I make mostly one off pieces, I will not be buying any new
    machinery.

    Peace and good health to you all

    this month and I am still getting great satisfaction from making
    pretty things.
