1. Saw data This is data about various saws that I have been able to examine. It includes type, weight, length and pictures. Most of these saws are for sale.

2. Saw tools and handles. All of these sections include: pictures, sizes and weights. This information is in two data sets, one set is in "normal defination" for faster loading, the other uses "high definaton" images for more details but loads slower. In both sets of images if an image is clicked on the identical full data about thst item will be displayed. All of these tools are for sale.
   1. Gauges: metal thickness,and spider gauges.
   2. Saw hammers and wrests.
   3. Saw handles.
   4. Miscelanious specialized saw tools.

6. The Larry Harris Collection in memory of Don "Doc" Clare Jastad On facebook I saw an tem from "Larry Harris's Collection" of saw data. I messaged him saying that I would be willing to host the collection. He said that it would be ok and I made an attempt to totally download the collection. It is now here with some of my additons.

7. Other documentation and data files. This set of data consists of four general aress of informaton:
   1. General use documents.
   2. Off site links.
   3. Items copied from Dolly Chapman's web site.
   4. Miscellaneous links.

8. A collection of over 1,200 patents related to saws. I noticed that many of the older saw tools, etc. had patent information in/on them. Here is what I could find from checking patent numbers with the US Patent Office. Because I searched several times based on varous patent number sources, I found multiple copies of the same patent and several times found non-saw related patents. I decided that I might as well put them all here with the "extras" might be of some use or not.

9. Various interesting items. Just what it sounds like:
   1. Information from Blackburn Tools.
   2. "Old Jimbo's" web site which has gone "404" and is no longer available. Mostly about Axes.

   6. KanCol, a web site containing interesting items about Kansas.
