Abstract: A method of manufacturing a saw blade includes providing a saw blade body having an edge, forming a plurality of tooth bodies that defines a plurality of gullets in the saw blade body, coupling a cutting member to the edge of the saw blade body, and shaping the cutting member to form a cutting tooth after the cutting member is coupled to the edge. Each one of the plurality of tooth bodies defines an undercut portion positioned between adjacent tooth bodies. The cutting tooth includes a rake face extending from a tip of the cutting tooth toward the saw blade body and a relief face extending from the tip toward a second end of the cutting tooth sloping toward the saw blade body.

Abstract: A saw blade includes a body and a plurality of cutting teeth formed on the body. Each cutting tooth includes a tip at a first end of the cutting tooth, a rake face extending from the tip toward the body, a relief face extending from the tip toward a second end of the cutting tooth and sloping toward the body, and a projection at the second end of the cutting tooth and sloping away from the body. The saw blade also includes a plurality of gullets formed on the body between the plurality of cutting teeth. Each gullet forms an undercut portion between the body and the projection of each cutting tooth.

Abstract: A saw blade includes a body and a plurality of cutting teeth formed on the body. The plurality of cutting teeth include a first cutting tooth having a tip adjacent a first end of the first cutting tooth, a rake face defining a rake face line extending from the tip toward the body at a positive rake angle, and a relief face extending from the tip toward a second end of the first cutting tooth. The saw blade also includes a plurality of gullets formed on the body between the plurality of cutting teeth. The plurality of gullets include a first gullet forming an undercut of the first cutting tooth. At least a portion of the undercut is positioned on a side of the rake face line in a direction opposite a cutting direction of the saw blade.

Abstract: A milling cutter includes a milling drum having a body with a first end, a second end, an outer surface extending around a circumference of the body between the first and second ends, and a plurality of slots formed in the outer surface. The plurality of slots arranged in a staggered row between the first end and the second end of the body. The milling cutter also includes a plurality of cutting insert removably secured to the body. Each cutting insert is positioned at least partially within one of the plurality of slots and includes a cutting profile defined by rounded peaks and pointed valleys to cut a tooth form into a saw blade. The plurality of cutting inserts are staggered such that the plurality of cutting inserts are circumferentially offset from each other along a longitudinal axis of the milling drum.

Abstract: A power driver may include a housing, a tool chuck and a power take off mechanism. The tool chuck may have an input shaft mounted for rotation on the housing. The input shaft may support chuck jaws. A chuck actuating shaft may be mounted for rotation on the input shaft. The power take off mechanism may be connected to the tool chuck. The power take off mechanism may be adjustable into a DRILL DRIVE MODE to rotationally drive the input shaft and the chuck actuating shaft together as a unit, and a CHUCK MODE to use the transmission shaft to rotationally drive the chuck actuating shaft relative to the input shaft. The transmission shaft may be a gear shaft axially aligned with the input shaft, or a tertiary shaft axially offset from the input shaft.

Abstract: An improved dust collector for a power tool is employed. The dust collector includes a body portion, a neck portion and a head portion, wherein the body portion is disposable on the power tool so that during the cutting operation the body portion will receive and direct the air, dust, and debris to the head portion via the neck portion to either be exhausted out or to be collected in a dust collection volume. Preferably, the body portion has a series of openings to allow the user to view the cutting wheel during the cutting operation. The body portion may also have an internal directional member for efficiently directing the flow of air, dust, and debris. The head portion is preferably rotatably connected to the neck portion to allow the user to rotate the head portion to a desired position.
