        Thanks to bruce and pete for openng an interesting discussion of
the details of sawsets.  I just bought a spifster 42X (thanks, Chuck).  I
noticed with interest Bruce's remark that the 42X doesn't permit
adjustment for the amount of set.  So, a question to Pete and the other
42X users:  how do you get a consistent amount of set (particularly on
backsaws, which is what I got several of that need sharpening) using a
42X?  Even squeezing, or is there a trick to it?

        Thanks,

        Andrew Barss
