Review: Irwin Mini Hacksaw 24Tpi 12" (250mm)

[Spanner2k7]

would this be any good?? It is a Boa Versa saw, the blade is attached at hand, and slides out the front when you push the handle forward, and a spring returns the handle back??

Hmmm, quite possibly. Cheers.

My old man got me one, best part of 9 yrs ago, I think I only have used it once, reading this thread, made me go and find it in the shed to see if I still had it. I used it on removing a set of mono sink mixers where the tails were to close to get a slice on, did the job nicely.

Seems ideal, if not I'm going to invent my own. Thanks again, definitely one to try out.

Multitool.

I've just bought one, seems a good buy so far :thumbup:

Anyone got a link to this particular multi tool you're all raving about?

 

[mountainman]

I have the Bosch one although others like the Feyn.

If you want to saw the back board get a stanley padsaw blade and flatten it into a bit 15mm pipe for a handle. It is better at cutting wood than a hacksaw blade.

Bosch PMF 180E All Rounder 3 In 1 Multi Tool Cuts - Saws - Sands 180w 240v : Tooled-Up.com

I used to use one for cutting around hearths on laminate floors and for cutting skirting boards without taking them off the wall. Worked great!

I use my cordless multi tool for everything now. Binned the hacksaw blade ages ago.

Yes I was using my Fein today cutting a load of lead out, the old saddle clips were all painted up so I wipped through them with the Fein in no time. Had the green Bosch but it didn't last.

My review was accepted, suppose I should have read the other ones before buying it in the first place.
