For those who prefer not to use, or do not have a knew concept, which saw do you use?
I am still having trouble sawing straight (or following any drawn pattern) with the saw that came with my cookies student starter kit. I am using vallorbe blades, get a really nice ping from it once inserted but when I saw it is impossible to saw straight with it. It wants to curve. In class on Thursday I let it do its own thing as I was just cutting a small strip and it went in a very nice anticlockwise arc. So, I got one of the class saws, which looks very similar to mine, took the blade out of my saw, put it into the class saw, got a really nice ping from it and hey presto, nice straight line. Continued to use class saw with no problem, changed to a different blade as I needed to cut a piece of thick copper, no problem cutting at all. At the end of class, took out the blade before returning class saw to its cupboard. Got home, put blade back in to my own saw to finish off what I had been cutting in class, got a really nice ping and ..... back to curvy cut, straight line impossible.
So, is it case of getting what you pay for?
Thanks Susie.
