Abstract
An abrading blade assembly having a detachable cutting section. The abrading blade assembly includes a body having a shank portion configured for attachment to a conventional reciprocating saw and a removably attachable cutting section having a cutting edge extending along its lower end. The cutting edge is oriented to be substantially parallel to a line of reciprocation defined by the reciprocal motion of the saw's reciprocating spindle. The blade assembly's cutting edge is spaced from the line of reciprocation a distance sufficient to permit clearance of the saw with the work surface while the blade is being used to abrade in a direction substantially parallel to the line of reciprocation along the work surface.
Claims20
A blade assembly for cutting a work surface, said blade assembly being attachable to a reciprocating saw having a reciprocable spindle, said blade assembly comprising:
- a rigid body having a lower end;
- a shank portion extending rearwardly from said body, said shank being configured for attachment to the spindle for reciprocation therewith;
- and
- a cutting section removably attachable to said body, said cutting section having a cutting edge for engaging the work surface, said cutting edge being spaced perpendicularly from said shank portion a distance sufficient to permit clearance of the saw from the work surface when said cutting section is attached to said body and said shank portion is attached to the spindle and when said cutting edge engages the work surface such that said shank portion is reciprocable substantially parallel to said work surface.
A cutting assembly for cutting a work surface, comprising:
- a reciprocating saw having a spindle reciprocable along a line of reciprocation;
- a rigid body having a lower end and a shank, said shank extending rearwardly from said body and being attached to said spindle for reciprocation therewith;
- and
- a cutting section removably attachable to said body, said cutting section having a cutting edge for engaging the work surface, said cutting edge being spaced perpendicularly from said line of reciprocation a distance sufficient to permit clearance of the saw from the work surface when said cutting section is attached to said blade body, said shank is attached to said spindle and said cutting edge engages the work surface such that said line of reciprocation is parallel to the work surface.
