🔧 What it does & how to use
A piercing saw is the jeweller's tool for cutting fine, intricate shapes and internal cut-outs from sheet metal, and is equally useful for detailed marquetry or craft work. It suits hobbyists and professional jewellers alike, and this set gives you a full range of blade grades to match different material thicknesses and levels of detail.
- Loosen the frame: slacken the clamps at each end of the frame to release tension before fitting a blade.
- Fit a blade: select a blade from the assorted set — finer grades (5/0, 6/0) for delicate, detailed work, coarser grades (1/0, 2/0) for thicker material — and secure it in the clamps.
- Adjust the frame: use the frame's adjustability to take up the blade's full 132mm length and set the correct tension.
- Tighten: lock the clamps so the blade is held taut and won't slip during cutting.
- Saw your design: guide the frame along your marked pattern with steady, even strokes, letting the blade do the cutting.
- Replace as needed: swap in a fresh blade from the holder when one wears or snaps — the labelled holder keeps grades easy to find.
