Re: Wood saws
Saws and saw baldes are specifed in terms of "teeth per inch" (TPI). Sounds like you have one with few TPI, perhaps meant for cutting green wood.As a general puposes cuts everything saw; have you considered buying a hack saw? That's what I would choose if I was getting stranded on a desert island and only allowed one universal saw. Should be quite cheap and you can easily change the blades to you always have a sharp one.

Re: Wood saws
Take a look at this typical hacksaw http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebas...hacksaw-373666. Wickes and Wilco will do something similar.That's a pretty cheap one, but might be ok to try it out.
The blade is 24 tpi and will cut nicely through wood, metal, plastic etc with no great effort.

Re: Wood saws
Now listen Ploppy dear, you must not doubt me when I tell you I have a problem. I'll have you know I was right fed up with the bloomin' thing yesterday.However, because of what some of you men have told me, I now realise I have bought the wrong saw.
Tpin's link on all different saw blades has opened a whole new world I never knew existed.
I honestly never dreamed there were different TPI on blades, did you know that?
Only thing now is, I don't really understand the difference is between soft and hard wood still? How do I know which is which when I see a length of wood in B & Q? It is never lablelled soft or hard? They should label it. Women's logic, so simple.
