Make Simple Hand Saw Guards From Flexible Conduit
Safety should be a priority in any workshop or tool shed, especially if you have curious young people around you. With a small flexible conduit, you can make safety guards for all your hand saws and avoid accidents.
These simple protective device from the user Instructables john pedersen easy to make and will not cost much, if you know where to look. All you need to do is cut the flex channel to the length of the blade of each saw, then carefully cut a slit on one side of each piece. Slide the sharp edge of the saw into the slot and the channel snaps into place on the blade, holding it in place. Keep in mind that this is PVC flexible conduit, not metal used in outdoor construction. It is usually blue or orange, and you can buy a roll of this material from the store or find one that has been thrown away at a construction site.
