In November 2009, Francis Collins of BLADEHOLD LTD presented St. Pius X College with a pioneering new ‘circular saw blade storage system’.

It is widely recognised that circular saws have become one of today’s most popular power tools. These saws and their blades are available in a wide variety of types and sizes, both require careful handling to operate and maintain.

Comprehensive research carried out by BLADEHOLD LTD has identified; if future trade persons are to be able to work competently in modern trade industries, emphasis has to be concentrated on instructing them on how to operate and handle today’s modern tools and equipment ‘safely’ and ‘economically’.

Francis commented: “This College has excellent technology facilities and we at BLADEHOLD LTD are pleased to present them with a BLADEHOLD circular saw blade storage system to add to their large range of tools and equipment”.

Mr Ronan McCusker, Head of Technology and Design at St. Pius X College strongly believes in this useful tool, “The BLADEHOLD is one of the most innovative products I’ve seen to date.  It keeps blades and tools to hand in a safe and ‘easy to access’ manner and with ease of mounting it can be installed anywhere”.

BLADEHOLD LTD have designed and patented a pioneering new range of: Multi-Circular Saw Blade Holders. These unique holders can assist those who teach trade skills in schools, colleges and workplace environments. All our holders can be used in any size of workshop to help: Professional trade’s people, Crafts people, Educators, DIY and Hobbyists operate their circular saws in a way that can increase their personal safety and the working life of their circular saws blades.  For further information visit http://www.bladehold.com/
