A few simple methods of sharpening and separation of teeth handsaws.

Once nephew brought me a pile of different glands: the old drills, files, and one large hacksaw.

Hacksaw never tochena and had to bring it to a usable state. I actually rarely use a hacksaw, but sometimes it is necessary.

I was curious to find out how to sharpen a hacksaw and teach different masters.

Of all the sources viewed the most simple and understandable to me to be two - it's material from Rubankov. Net and from paul Sellers (Joiner from England, who works primarily with hand tools)

Paul has Celler, that of this videoI learned about the shock way wiring saws.

You can use a hammer and a screw. At the screw on one side grinds hat, so it does not rotate when struck.

And then the wiring is done with small hammer blows on the cap screw. Self moves through one tooth thereon and hit with a hammer.

This is done with one and then the other side of the saw, and under it is necessary to put a rail. The layout in this way to get small and I think is more suitable for small teeth.

As for sharpening hacksaw.

IN video by Rubankov. Net can be acquainted with the theoretical basis for sharpening saw, for longitudinal and transverse cutting and sharpened saw therein using special industrial devices.

I tried the method suggested by Paul Celler for sharpening saws cross-cutting, as shown in this video.

Saw sharpening amenities fit between two rails and clamped in tisah.

The teeth are sharpened at an angle, and make it easier to sustain the corner, right on the rails applied risks. Paul has called an angle of 65 degrees.

And then a triangular a file is sharpening. First, on the one hand through one tooth, then the other.

As you can see really simple techniques. I hope this information is helpful.
