PSA: a $40 hand saw beat my bandsaw on bone-in shanks and I'm still annoyed about it
Last month I was breaking down 60 lbs of bone-in lamb shanks at the shop and my bandsaw blade kept wandering on the curved cuts, so out of frustration I grabbed the old hand saw hanging by the sink and finished the whole batch with it. The hand saw gave me cleaner cuts with almost no bone dust, and the shanks looked sharper on the tray than anything the machine had done all week. Am I the only one who reaches for hand tools when the machine starts acting up?
