Cette expression scie sauteuse n'est pas spéciale aux appareils destinés au travail de l'amateur. Elle désigne également un type de scie utilisé par les professionnels [...] la lame de la scie, qui a la forme d'une lame de couteau, est fixée par une de ses extrémités seulement et se déplace au moyen d'un engrenage et d'une came, dans un mouvement alternatif très rapide [...] Bien qu'une scie sauteuse soit particulièrement destinée à la découpe des trous en arc de cercle, on peut également l'utiliser pour des coupes droites. 1, record 1, French, - scie%20sauteuse
