I want to try some piercework in copper and sterling. I have a couple of jewelers' saw frames but don't know which blades to buy. Do you use the straight cutting blades or the ones that can cut in any direction? What sizes are the most useful? A simple question, I assume you cut on the down (pull) stroke, is this correct? Do you use any lubrication on the saw blade? An ancillary question: after cutting out the piece, when you start the filing, do you use chalk in the needle files like you do when using a draw file?
Any info will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
