Les scies à tronçonner coupent transversalement (sens contraire aux fibres du bois). Les dents d’une scie à tronçonner sont pointues et biseautées. Les pointes coupent le bois comme des couteaux, en laissant deux traits parallèles, tandis que l’intérieur des pointes cisaille le bois et le réduit en bran de scie. Les dents sont avoyées, alternativement de gauche à droite, afin d’éviter le coincement de la lame dans le trait. 2, record 4, French, - scie%20%C3%A0%20tron%C3%A7onner
