Auto Do It Yourself

In this video we'll restore a 1920's K-D Tools Model 99 Hack Saw.
These saws could take blades from 12 inches down to 3 inches, for cutting around obstructions.
Patented in 1920 by George Wilkins, this saw was made all the way up until 1946, when it was replaced with a new model with a quick change blade system.
After the restoration, I'll attempt to dual wield this saw along with the later model version.
