I want to cut a hatch out and all I have is big thick hacksaw blades. Is there a better tool for this?
Xacto makes a small razor saw blade for their small (#11 size) handle... It's about 1 1/4 inches long, 5/16 inch high and .015 thick, with about 64 teeth per inch... easy to use for cutting in balsa/basswood...
If you're trying to cut thicker plywood (> 1/16 inch), would suggest a coping saw or jeweler's saw...
