Alltools Geelong is your local Supercraft stockist for saw maintenance tools, supplying the specialist gear that keeps hand saws cutting straight and true. Our Supercraft range sits within Hand Saws, where you’ll find Saw Setting Tools such as the TSS0175 175mm saw set — a niche tool for sawyers, woodworkers and restorers across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast.
A saw set bends each tooth a precise, equal amount to create the “set” that gives the blade clearance in the cut — essential for preventing binding and keeping a hand saw running smoothly. The Supercraft TSS0175 is a plier-style saw setting tool that lets you re-set teeth accurately when sharpening or restoring a saw, a specialist item big-box stores rarely carry. Woodworkers, tool restorers and traditional craftspeople throughout Torquay, Ocean Grove, Lara and Greater Geelong rely on us for these harder-to-find maintenance tools. Our team can advise on saw setting and sharpening as part of keeping your hand saws in top condition.
Visit our Geelong store at 124 Fyans Street, South Geelong for hands-on advice, or browse our Supercraft range online with delivery across eastern and southern Australia. Trade accounts welcome.
A saw set bends alternate saw teeth outward by a small, even amount. This “set” gives the blade clearance in the kerf so the saw doesn’t bind, letting it cut smoothly and track straight.
Teeth typically need re-setting during a full sharpening, or when an older saw starts binding or wandering in the cut because the set has worn down. The TSS0175 lets you restore an even set quickly.
The plier-style tool grips the blade and bends each tooth to a consistent angle as you work along the saw, alternating sides. Setting every second tooth one way and the rest the other keeps the set balanced. Ask our team if you’d like guidance on the process.
