YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) – It took 20 years to identify Lina Reyes Geddes. It took another four to identify a suspect in her murder.

At a joint Zoom press conference on Wednesday with police in Youngstown, Ohio, representatives with the Utah Department of Public Safety said they believe the husband of the missing Ohio woman who was found shot to death in 1998 was her killer.

Edward Geddes, who owned a business in Youngstown, died by suicide in 2001 in Nevada. Investigators said they were able to match DNA from Edward Geddes, Lina’s husband, on the rope that was used to bind her.

Lina Reyes Geddes was not identified until November 2018, after parallel investigations by UDPS Agent Brian Davis and Youngstown Police Detective Sgt. David Sweeney.

Davis was trying to find the identity of the woman who was found bound and murdered on April 20, 1998, on Utah Highway 276. The body had also been wrapped in duct tape, placed in a sleeping bag and bound in carpet, according to the UDPS.

Sweeney was trying to close out a missing person case into Lina Reyes Geddes’ disappearance in 1998, when her family in Mexico reported her missing.

Her husband, however, never reported her missing. It was her family who notified police of her disappearance after she was supposed to take a trip to Laredo, Texas, to visit, but never made it.

In an Oct. 1998 interview with now-retired Youngstown Police Detective Sgt. Jose Morales, Sr., Edward Geddes, dressed in a blue V-neck sweater and white shirt, sipped from a cup of coffee as he told Morales he dropped his wife off at the Pittsburgh airport on April 8, 1998. He kissed her just before she walked into the airport, Edward Geddes said.

“That was the last time I saw her,” he claimed.

The interview was provided by city police to Utah authorities and is available on the UDPS home page.

Although Lina Reyes Geddes was from Austintown, city police took over the case because of Morales, who is fluent in Spanish, and it was easier for him to talk to her relatives. She also owned a business in Youngstown.

Davis said once they were able to identify Lina Reyes Geddes, they then had to figure out who killed her. The task was daunting, he said. Investigators with the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office, where her body was found, worked the case for two years but had no luck in closing it out.

In 2008, the case was reopened again, this time by state authorities.

At first, it was thought she may have been a victim of serial killer Scott Lee Kimball of Boulder, Colorado. Kimball is responsible for at least four murders in rural Colorado and Utah between 2003-2004, and is thought to have killed more than 20 additional people. He is currently serving a 70-year prison sentence for the four murders he was convicted of.

However, Davis said Kimball was ruled out as a suspect, but has not said why. Davis himself was handed the case in 2016.

Both Davis and Sweeney posted public notices looking for help at about the same time, and a person Sweeney described as an “internet sleuth” noticed the similarities in both cases and contacted authorities in Utah and Youngstown, which helped to put investigators on the right track.

“There were a lot of moving parts in this case,” Sweeney said.

After Lina Reyes Geddes’ body was identified, it was a major breakthrough, Davis said. It was needed because previous investigations had taken advantage of all kinds of techniques — investigators even consulted a knot expert to examine the rope she was bound in — but nothing ever panned out.

“This [identification] opened up new doors for us,” Davis said. “That was a huge break in our case.”

Once she was identified, Davis said his next task was finding out who killed her.

Davis said investigators interviewed several people in Youngstown about the victim and her husband, and he also decided to retest the evidence in the case. One piece of evidence he was particularly interested in was the rope she was bound in.

A cold case analyst with UDPS got Davis in touch with a crime scene specialist in Utah who had access to special tools to test evidence. One of those tools was an M-Vac, which Davis described as a wet-dry-type device that is used on especially tough surfaces, like rope, to extract DNA.

Davis explained that the M-Vac shoots a solution onto the surface of an item, which is then extracted by the vacuum. Everything the device extracts goes into a special filter, where any DNA is separated.

The M-Vac found 117 enneagrams of DNA on the rope, Davis said — more than enough to be tested. Davis said a DNA profile can be found in just one enneagram of DNA.

When the DNA was tested, there were two different DNA profiles. Next, investigators asked for DNA samples from the family of Edward Geddes.

Two family members gave a sample willingly, but Sweeney said he had to get a search warrant to get a sample from Edward Geddes’ son.

The DNA samples came back with a familial match, but there was still the problem of the other DNA profile found on the rope. They entered that profile into a national database and it came back to a 2011 murder in Montana. When investigators checked out that case, they discovered the same knot expert used in the Lina Reyes Geddes case also handled a rope that was used in the Montana case.

The expert submitted his own DNA, which matched the second sample taken from the rope. Only one profile remained, according to investigators: that Edward Geddes.

“It goes to show the science of where we’re at with DNA,” Davis said.

Davis said the case is a very emotional one for him because of the connection he made with both Lina Reyes Geddes and her family, who took her body home in 2019 to bury her.

“These cases are very difficult. They’re tough. They can hit a lot more dead ends than successes,” Davis said. “It’s very, very fulfilling to be a part of that [solved case] and the people coming together.”

Davis said he had no idea why Edward Geddes would be in Utah with his wife. He said it appeared when she was found that she had not been dead very long. He said if Edward Geddes was still alive, he would file murder charges against him.

Sweeney said the case speaks of the importance of cold cases and missing person cases. Although he is now a patrol supervisor and no longer in the detective bureau, he still heads up the department’s missing person cases. He said there are 16 open missing person cases the department is working on currently, and he hopes the success of the Geddes case will help spur people who have information to come forward.

“Even if there’s a small tidbit of information, it can solve the case,” Sweeney said.

Book Description

Neuroeconomics has emerged as a paradigmatic field where neuroscience and the social sciences are integrated in one analytical and empirical approach. However, the different disciplines involved often only relate to each other via the shared object of research, and less through the constructing of precise models of integrative mechanisms.

Social Neuroeconomics explores the potential of philosophical and methodological reflections in the neurosciences and the social sciences to inform those efforts at cross-disciplinary integration, with a special focus on recent contributions to mechanistic explanations. The collected essays are drawn from the fields of neuroscience, psychology, economics, sociology and philosophy, and examine the ways and methods of constructing unified conceptual frameworks that can guide empirical work and hypothesis building. This is demonstrated in a range of applications, particularly regarding finance and consumer behavior. The concept of the ‘social brain’ is also explored; a multilevel framework in which complex analytical categories such as emotions or socially mediated cognitive processes connect neuronal and social phenomena in specific mechanisms that generate behavior.

This book addresses a wide audience across the various disciplines, reaching from the neurosciences to the social sciences and philosophy.

Grenfell: still mourning, still fighting

Friday 14 June 2019 marks the two-year anniversary of the Grenfell tower fire. The bereaved, survivors, the community and their supporters will be gathering to march in silence, as they have on the 14th day of every month since the fire.

As the fight for justice continues, we publish photographs by Steve Eason from the past two years of marches, and a poem by Anna Roderick written in the immediate aftermath of the fire.

The community and supporters will gather at 7pm at Notting Hill Methodist church for a multi-faith vigil and the silent walk will start at 7.45pm. It will be followed by speeches.

They will be remembering the 72 who died that night. Together we will continue to fight for justice, not only for this community, but for everyone forced to live in unsafe and inadequate housing, or without a home at all, and all those subject to criminal neglect and harassment by the police and immigration officials.

by Anna Roderick

The average salary in the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is £123,000, the highest in the country. The median salary is £32,700.

You are burning £50 notes and swigging champagne.

No other area in the country has a larger disparity between median and mean incomes, suggesting a large gap between rich and poor.

You are eating your lunch, your mouth full of charcoal.

‘We paid a lot of money to live here, and we worked hard for it. Now these people are going to come along, and they won’t even be paying the service charge.’

You return home and your children have set fire to their toys.

‘You can write what you like, but trust me, money rules the world. People like me are going to live here? Never.’

You are divining the future from a burnt rat’s entrails.

The materials used were chosen ‘to accord with the development plan by ensuring that the character and appearance of the area are preserved and living conditions of those living near the development suitably protected.’

You are waking to find that your bed sheets are scorched.

If people burning to death in their homes because of failures of the state isn’t political then frankly I do not know what is.

You are drawing up plans, then burning the evidence.

The local authority will, in the public interest, be under severe pressure to be seen to be taking action following a disaster. Whilst this is honourable, there is a need to recognise the limits of any duties and moral obligations in the context of the wider financial picture.

You are striking a match and then watching it burn.

What if there is a fire elsewhere in my building?
If there is a fire elsewhere in the building then the structure of the building (walls, floors and doors) are designed to give you a minimum of 30-60 minutes protection, enabling you to remain in your flat whilst the Fire Service extinguish it.
If there is a fire elsewhere in your building then you are usually safer to stay in your flat unless the heat or smoke from the fire is affecting you.

You are waiting for a mob bearing pitchforks and torches.

Why don’t I have a fire escape in my building, and only one way out?
Many residential tower blocks are constructed with a single staircase. This design for high rise buildings dates back to the 1950s, and it is still an accepted method of construction under current Building Regulation guidance.
The principle, in single staircase blocks, is that each individual flat forms a fire resistant compartment to contain the fire and the communal stair is protected by fire doors to enable it to be used for prolonged periods of time.

You are using your bones and your breath as a firebreak.

is this what Le Corbusier meant?

You are trying to make art, there is blood on your hands.

Papa, il grattacielo sta bruciando

You gave birth to a baby, you named her inferno.

We helped a Somali man who had been waiting for an asylum decision, and obviously he lost all his papers in the fire…We haven’t even established the number of victims yet and who they are. We know from our community contacts that Moroccans who were not on any of the lists, Sudanese, Eritrean and Ethiopian families who are not on any of the lists.

You rose from the sea and still the flames claimed you.

People felt during the Blitz that they were expected to take it, especially the working class population, who got the roughest of the Blitz because they lived near where they worked, near factories or the docks, and often in houses not very well built. They felt they suffered a lot and the government owed them.

You are watching the sun set, it flickers and finds you.

You are building a bonfire from plastic and concrete.

One young survivor of the blast described his shock the next day when the school’s headmaster read the register – this figure of authority wept openly every time he called out a name and no answer was given.

You are scratching their names with a stick in the ashes.

‘If you’re going to go to such a tragic area, pay respect, console people, talk to people, don’t just use that opportunity as a ‘selfie moment’ or act like it’s a party turning up in bright clothes and fresh trainers like it’s Notting Hill Carnival and chasing girls to get their numbers.’

You are wailing a poem you made out of kindling.

In the Second World War, a stray bomb hit South Hallsville School in Canning Town. This bomb, according to official figures, killed around 77 people. It is now believed that almost 600 people died when the building was destroyed.

You are speaking in tongues, your lips are aflame.
You are holding a hand: when you look
it is gone.

Rand Paul victory to open doors for alternative candidates

Dr. Rand Paul, son of Representative Ron Paul (Republican-Texas) has claimed victory in the Kentucky Republican Senate primary winning a race many in the Republican Party leadership were hoping to see him lose.

However he earned both Tea Party support and an open endorsement from former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Many feel Paul’s victory will open the doors for other liberty candidates to run for office successfully. Shelly Roche, the founder of ByteStyle.tv and a member of the Ladies for Liberty Alliance, agrees.

“I think it really signals a shift in voter priorities. They’re really sick of politics as usual and looking for something real and that is exactly what they got with Rand Paul,” said Roche.

Paul’s libertarian views overlap with his Tea Party supporters and is their support will be crucial for him in November.

Supporters “will keep him in line and make sure he fulfills his promises,” said Roche.

Rand Paul’s victory not only shows that the grassroots can ignite a movement, but that it can also translate into votes. This will likely be wake-up call for the mainstream Republican Party.

“People are kind of scrambling to come up with a plan. I don’t think they were expecting the overcoming support for Rand to actually translate to votes,” said Roche. “It has them scrambling and a little bit nervous.”

FCC Under Fire

On one level, AT&T’s proposed merger with BellSouth was simply the latest in a string of high-profile acquisitions by AT&T. But in 2006, the planned buyout dovetailed with national concerns about the NSA’s warrantless spying program and growing questions about whether the Federal Communications Commission has deliberately ignored damning evidence about the effects of media consolidation.

As the end of the year approached, the FCC was deadlocked on the AT&T merger, with a deciding vote likely to come soon. But watchdog groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Digital Democracy implored commissioners to get answers from AT&T about their reported participation in the NSA program (BellSouth officials denied cooperating with the NSA, but AT&T maintained a conspicuous silence on the issue).

The FCC also faced accusations that it buried two studies (issued in 2003 and 2004) offering proof that media consolidation has resulted in less local news coverage and a decrease in minority ownership. In response, 34 congressional Democrats appealed to FCC Inspector General Kent R. Nilsson to investigate the matter.

The FCC’s reputation was not helped this year when its five-year-old decision to allow NBC to purchase Telemundo came under fire after NBC decided to regionalize Telemundo’s news and eliminate several of its news divisions, including the one at San Antonio’s KVDA.

“Everybody thinks it’s going to fail,” a KVDA employee said, with regard to the regionalization plan. “`NBC Universal` consider themselves to be pioneers in this new way of delivering news, but in reality it’s going to fail.”

Nobody But Us (Hardcover)

Nobody But Us By Laure Van Rensburg Cover Image
List Price: $28.00
Our Price: $23.80
(Save: $4.20 15%)
Warehouse, In Stock | Usually Ships in 1-5 Days | New

An “amazing” (NYT bestselling author of Gone Girl, Gillian Flynn) high-concept thriller in which a couple’s romantic weekend-getaway is not what is seems.

Named a Most Anticipated Book by Bookish

He’s not who he says he is.
Then again, neither is she.

Steven Harding is a handsome, well-respected professor. Ellie Masterson is a wide-eyed grad student.
Together, they are driving south from New York for their first vacation: three days in an isolated cabin, far from the city.
Ahead of them, the promise of long, dark nights—and the chance to get to know each other better, away from prying eyes.
It should be a perfect romantic getaway for two. But when a snowstorm strands them in the house, each realizes the other harbors a dangerous secret—and soon it becomes clear one of them won’t escape the weekend alive.
By turns tantalizing, surprising, and thrilling, Nobody But Us heralds the arrival of an incredibly talented author of literary suspense.

About the Author

Laure Van Rensburg is a French writer living in the UK and an Ink Academy alumna. Her stories have appeared in online magazines and anthologies such as Litro Magazine, Storgy Magazine, The Real Jazz Baby (2020 Best Anthology, Saboteur Awards 2020), and FIVE:2:ONE. She has also placed in competitions including 2018 & 2019 Bath Short Story Award.

Praise For…

"Read Laure's novels, which are amazing."—Gillian Flynn, author of GONE GIRL

“Van Rensburg deftly manipulates the narrative, leading readers to root for Ellie’s ruthless and unnervingly clever machinations as Steven’s dangerous nature is slowly unveiled. This story of dueling mind-games and duplicity is a must-read for psychological-thriller fans, especially those with a taste for revenge.”—Booklist (Starred Review)

“Exceptional debut, a highly entertaining psychological thriller…This deliciously creepy haunted house tale skillfully explores the psyches of two people who carry their own ghosts with them.”—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

“Filled with tension and twists and turns, you will not want to put it down.”—Red Carpet Crash

"Fierce, frightening, bold and beautiful. Clear your schedule for this one, Nobody But Us is savagely gripping."

Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of WE BEGIN AT THE END

“An isolated house in the snowy woods, a cat-and-mouse chase, a story packed with secrets where nobody is what they seem ... I loved the flashbacks expertly woven into the tale to reveal the dark secrets of a relationship.”

Allie Reynolds, author of SHIVER

"Brutal, tense, and utterly compelling, Laure Van Rensburg is an electrifying new voice."

Louise O’Neill, author of ASKING FOR IT

"Miserymeets MalcolmandMarie... An intoxicating, head-spinning and heavy-hitting revenge thriller."

Holly Seddon, author of TRY NOT TO BREATHE

Energy Flows Romania 2008

I found the below Sankey diagram depicting Romania’s energy flows for 2008 in an article titled ‘A Macro-Micro Perspective on Sustainable Refurbishment of the Housing Sector’ by Ovidiu-Horaţiu Teleche, University of Architecture and Urbanism, Bucharest. Published in Proceedings of 1st International Conference on Architecture & Urban Design, Department of Architecture (2012).

Flows are in ktoe (kilotons of oil-equivalents). Underlying data is from the Romanian National Institute of Statistics and Eurostat 2010. EPP is for ‘Electrical Power Plant’, CHP for ‘Combined Heat & Power Plant’, and DHP for ‘District Heating Plant’.
Note the small flow quantities where arrows are not to scale to be able to view them at all (minimum line width set to 1 or 2 px).

Energy generation is predominantly fossil (coal, petroleum, natural gas). Biomass is the most important energy source in the residential sector. The article doesn’t mention the reason, but my guess is on wood or peat “for preparation of hot water, cooking and direct burning in the stoves for heating” as mentioned in this article on biomass in Romania.

How To Choose The Best Circular Saw Blade

Choosing the right circular saw blade is important to experience the desired performance. When it comes to buying a new blade, you need to consider several points to get the right tool for you.

So we have listed the important things to consider while buying a circular saw blade in this detailed buying guide for your convenience…

Consider The Material

While buying a new circular saw blade, the first thing to consider is the type of material you are going to cut. Whether you are going to cut wood, plastic, plywood, or metal, make sure you get the right one for the job.

The size of the blade is another important point. Circular saw blades come in different sizes for different purposes. Bigger size blades are ideal for heavy applications, and smaller size blades are ideal for lighter applications.

Also, the circular saw blade needs to fit in your saw to cut the materials. So, make sure to check your circular saw so that the blade you choose is right for your saw.

Arbor Size

If you buy a circular saw blade that doesn’t fit your saw, then that is of no use for you. So, next you’ll need to consider the arbor size of a blade. Usually, the arbor size of the circular saw blades can vary from 3/8 inches to 1 inch according to the size of the blade and saw.

Number of Teeth

The number of teeth on a circular saw blade plays an important role in cutting performance. Usually, these tools use small teeth to cut finer. A general rule of thumb, the more teeth, the finer the cut.

Circular blades are used for numerous applications and get plenty of wear and tear. So, if the blade is not durable, then it may break. Therefore, make sure it’s made out of high-quality material and can last for a long time.

You can use a file to sharpen the blade’s teeth, but you need to ensure that you do not mess the teeth’ angle. Moreover, remember that carbide is very hard & you might need a diamond sharpener for such blades. You can even opt for professional blade sharpening services, and these services are worth it.

Are more teeth on blades better?

The number of teeth on the blade determines the finish and the speed of the cut. It is known that the blades with a higher number of teeth enable you to get a finer finish, while the blades with a fewer number of teeth will give you a somewhat rough finish. However, if you are cutting large lumber pieces, you must use blades with fewer teeth. Depending on the purpose, you must choose the Teeth per Inches configuration. Moreover, ensure that your blades have gullets and expansion slots as well.

What should I do with the old circular saw blade?

If you have old blades that you do not plan to use or blades that can’t be sharpened again, then our advice is to save them for the future. You might even have some cheap blades which are not worth sharpening. In such a case, you can keep them for work, such as demolition work. You will even be able to use these old useless blades for cutting through lumber that might have nails in them. These are the two uses of the old blades, which are of no use to you.

How can I cut the plywood with a circular saw without splintering it?

To avoid splintering of plywood, ensure that you are using the appropriate blade for cutting the plywood. In addition to this, ensure that the blade is sharp enough to remove the material without any issues. While cutting through the plywood, you must also check if the plywood’s good face is closer to the blade’s outside edge. If you are still getting splinters, you can add a strip of masking tape on both sides, and you can cut over the tape. This trick works like magic.

How can I use a circular saw without a table?

To use the circular saw without a table, you can start by getting pressure treated plywood. Once you have it, you can fir your saw with the edge guides,which will help you get a straight cut. Now, ensure that you have set the depth of the blade according to your need. You would now need to place the unused woods on the sawhorse, and you can proceed with the use of a circular saw without the table.

So, there you have it – the best circular saw blades on the market today. When choosing a new circular saw blade, anyone can get confused as there is a lot of things to consider.

How To Choose The Best Dovetail Saw

It is never easy to pick a reliable tool. You need to find a lot about the tool before you buy it. It is also the case when you are purchasing a dovetail saw. You need to find out about the saw, and you need to deep dive into the specifications. In this section, we have listed all the factors that you would need to consider before buying the saw.

Material of the Saw

While you are buying a saw, the most critical factor remains to be the blade’s material. Most of the hand saws are designed with stainless steel, and this is also the case with the dovetail saw. This saw is made of stainless steel, but you must check the kind of steel used in making the saw. It is always better to go for a harder alloy as it will offer high durability. Ensure that the material is corrosion resistant as well.

Blade Length

The next thing that you need to check is the size of the blade. The most common size of the dovetail saw is 10 inches. You will find shorter or larger saws, but the best ones are 10 inches. If we talk about the variations, you will find the saws between the size of 6 and 12 inches. In addition to this, the smaller the saw is, the easier it will be to navigate the saw. If you are going to use the saw only to make the joints, you can even buy a larger blade size.

Teeth per Inch

Another thing to check while buying a dovetail saw is the TPI. In general, the dovetail saw will have a 6 to 20 TPI configuration. It is better to choose a dovetail saw with higher TPI. It offers you with the required smoothness when you are using the dovetail saw. You can even choose a different type of TPI depending on your need.

The dovetail saw, in general, has a thin kerf, so you would need to ensure that the saw that you are buying also has a thin kerf. A saw with thicker kerf might not serve you while you are making dovetail joints. So, ensure that you buy a saw which thin kerf only. It will also help you in trimming the bleed.

Handle & Back Material

While it is essential to check the blade’s material, it is also vital to review the material of the handle & back. The backside of the blade should be made of brass. This design gives strength to the blade, and it will be easier for you to work with the saw. Talking about the handle, buy a saw whose handle is made of wood. Avoid the ones which are made of resin or synthetic material.

The next thing that we are going to talk about is the ergonomics. The dovetail saw should be comfortable to hold. The handles of these saws are designed with a lot of care, but you might still encounter poorly designed products. You must steer clear of such saws and ensure that whatever you are buying has a good handle. It is better to go with the saws with the traditional handle design.

Replaceable Blade

You can sharpen the blade of the dovetail saw, so you must not worry about replacing the blade. If you intend to use the saw for a long time, then you will need to replace the blade after a long time usage. In such a case, you can invest in a saw whose blade is replaceable. The replaceable blade will reduce the cost of replacement of the dovetail saw.

Price of Saw

The price of any tool is an essential factor that you need to consider while buying it. In such a case, you would need to check the cost of the dovetail saw as well. You can find reliable dovetail saws between $10 and $30. There are some expensive dovetail saws available in the market. If you want, you can go through the utility factor offered by that costly tool, but our recommendation is to buy something within your budget.

How to Use a Dovetail Saw?

A dovetail saw requires a certain level of skill to operate, but once you are used to it, the precision offered by a dovetail saw is unmatched. It is excellent for work that requires a higher level of accuracy. Follow the steps below that will help you use the dovetail saw.

  • The first thing is to ensure that you use the proper dovetail saw. This means that the blade should have a thin kerf, and the blade should be sharp.
  • Now, start by securing the piece of wood that you would like to cut and then align the dovetail saw with the material. The feet should be spread apart for higher stability.
  • Hold the dovetail saw with the index finger on one side and, with a lower position, start moving the saw without any pressure to make a thin line on the material.
  • To use the dovetail saw, you need to move the dovetail saw back and forth. Do not exert pressure, or you will never get a straight cut. Exerting no pressure will ensure that you get a precise and accurate cut.
  • Allow the teeth to cut the material, and you can then get the type of cut you want. If you need to make a dovetail joint, you would need a certain level of practice before you can make the dovetail saw successfully.
  • While cutting the material, you should also ensure that the non-cutting hand is on top of the board. This will make the board stable, and it will also help you have better control over the cut. Also, mark the lines before you start cutting since that is always the right way to cut.

Dovetail Saw Using Safety Tips & Guidelines

Despite the handy design and easy to use functionality, the dovetail saw require knowledge of basics like how to hold the saw and what’s the best way to use it. If you are not familiar with using a dovetail saw, learning about the safety tips can ensure adequate use. Here are some of the safety tips –

  • Dovetail Saws are available in several sizes and you should always choose the right one based on the task. Large size is heavy and designed for specific purposes.
  • Wearing safety gloves will help you prevent any chances of touching the blade accidentally while using pressure to cut through the wood.
  • Always clamp the wood or objects that you want to cut. Having a perfect grip on the cutting board is necessary to prevent slipping the dovetail saw.
  • Do not apply too much pressure, instead focus on moving the blade back and forth with adequate pressure until you reach the corner. Slowing down is necessary to prevent accidentally cutting yourself.
  • Always use a sharp blade with the dovetail saw and if there is rust on the blade, avoid using it. Sometimes the blade can break in between and cause several issues.
  • Never clean the scrap from the working station with your hand after using a dovetail saw. The dovetail saw has zigzag-shaped cutting blades, which create lots of slivers, and it can get into your skin.
  • Dovetail saws help in cutting with ease, but you might end up dealing with precision. So, always mark before cutting wood, metal, or any other object with the dovetail saw.
  • Always ensure a firm grip over the dovetail saw because if you slip, your hand might be in the way of such a sharp blade. By ensuring that you are maintaining a proper grip, you can have safe use.
  • To position the blade on cutting material, use your other hand on the top of the dovetail saw to align it perfect. Some people find it difficult to align so, you should do it from the top part instead of using excessive pressure.
  • Choosing a quality dovetail saw is necessary to prevent any problem with cutting or usability. Poorly made dovetail saws have an issue with cutting, and the blade start fading in a couple of days.

By following all the given tips, you can use a dovetail saw effectively and prevent any accident with ease,

Dovetail Saw Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal TPI for my dovetail saw?

Dovetail Saws are available in different Teeth Per Inch configurations. You will find saws with as low as 25 TPI, and you will also come across models with 42 TPI. The ideal TPI depends on the kind of project that you are working on. Remember that if your saw has fewer teeth per inch, the cut will be rough, and the wood might splinter. If the TPI is too high, then the cutting action will be slow. Moreover, you also need to understand if you need a fine cut or a rough cut. For the finishing work and display projects, always opt for a higher TPI.

How can I sharpen the blade of the dovetail saw?

It is not very difficult to sharpen the blade of the dovetail saw. You do not need any specialized tool to sharpen the saw. To begin the process, you can mark the saw’s teeth, and you can then file the blade. Ensure that you are using the correct angle to file the blade’s teeth as a wrong angle would lead to nasty cuts. You would need a file and ensure that the file’s length is 4 to 5 inches. Moreover, the file should be slim to get the right sharpness every time.

Do I need to use glue on the dovetail joints?

Dovetail joints are an example of fantastic craftsmanship. They require a high level of precision, but at the same time, it is easy to put the joint together. We always recommend the fellow woodworkers to use the glue on the dovetail joints as it will help you in getting a sturdy join. Applying glue may make it messy during the production process, but it is worth it. The joint won’t shake, and it will last for decades with the help of a little glue.

Why am I not able to make a straight cut with the dovetail saw?

If you cannot make straight cuts with the dovetail saw, there would be an underlying cause. The first thing you must check is if you are applying the right amount of pressure. Using too much pressure on the saw would often result in angled cuts. You must also have a clean marking before starting the sawing process. Ensure that you are allowing the weight of the saw to do the job. The second reason for not getting a straight cut might be the angle of the teeth. There is a possibility that some of the teeth of the saw have been bend, and hence you are not able to make a straight cut. Rectifying these two things will help you in correcting the angle of the cut.

Is it worth replacing the blade of the dovetail saw?

You can first try and sharpen the blade of the dovetail saw. You will be able to sharpen the blades a lot of times before you reach a point wherein the saw doesn’t have enough material to be removed. In such a case, you can go ahead and replace the dovetail saw blade. Replacing the blade will always prove to be cheaper than buying the new saw. You can go ahead and check out the saws that come with an extra blade as well. So, we can say that it is worth replacing the blade of the dovetail saw.

Final Verdict

Many people confuse the dovetail saw with the Tenon saw, but remember that they are different. The Tenon saw helps in making Tenon joints while the dovetail saw is designed to make dovetail joints. The Tenon saw also has a thicker blade, so the kerf is usually compromised. With all these details, you will be able to buy a dovetail saw for yourself. You can buy a dovetail saw, and you will be able to use it for a long time. It is possible to sharpen the blade of the dovetail saw, and many of these tools also allow you to replace the blade.
