OcCre 32mm Hand Saw with Handle is a high-quality modeling tool, designed for precise cutting in any hobbyist's workshop. This metal back saw, from the manufacturer OcCre, features an interchangeable threaded handle, ensuring comfortable and durable use. It's an ideal tool for making both perpendicular and angled cuts in strips, rods, or planks.
Main Applications
The OcCre 32mm Hand Saw is an indispensable piece of equipment for every modeler, from amateur to professional. Its primary purpose is precise cutting of various materials used in modeling, such as wood (balsa, basswood, walnut), plastic (styrene, ABS), and thin metal profiles (brass, aluminum). It excels in the construction of ship models, aircraft models, building models, or architectural dioramas, where obtaining accurate, clean cuts is crucial. It is particularly useful for trimming structural elements, planking strips, and for precise fitting of details.
Key Technical Features and Materials
Construction and Materials
Metal Blade: The saw blade is made of high-grade metal, guaranteeing long-lasting sharpness, wear resistance, and cutting precision.
Back Saw: The special design with a reinforced blade spine ensures increased rigidity and stability during cutting. This minimizes the risk of blade bending and allows for straight, repeatable cuts without deviation.
Ergonomics and Interchangeable Handle
Interchangeable Threaded Handle: The tool is equipped with a handle mounted on a sturdy thread. This solution facilitates disassembly and replacement of the handle when needed, and also allows for matching or swapping with other OcCre tools utilizing a similar mounting system.
Connection Stability: The threaded mounting ensures a secure and stable connection between the handle and the blade, which is crucial for safe and precise work.
Dimensions
The saw with a 32mm blade (most likely referring to the working width or cutting depth) is optimal for working with smaller to medium-sized elements. Its compact size allows for convenient maneuvering in tight spaces and precise cutting of small parts that require high accuracy.
Compatibility with Various Modeling Materials
The OcCre Hand Saw is compatible with a wide range of materials commonly used in modeling, including:
Wood: Cutting strips, veneers, rods, and planks made of balsa, walnut, maple, or other types of modeling wood.
Plastic: Effective cutting of sheets and profiles made of polystyrene (PS), ABS, PVC, and other plastics used in plastic modeling and architectural modeling.
Soft Metals: Capable of cutting thin rods, tubes, and profiles made of brass, aluminum, and other soft metal alloys.
Its versatility makes it a valuable tool that will find application in almost any modeling project, from ship modeling to railway modeling.
