Anyone know where to get some plastic stripping that you can slide over the edges of your hand saws to protect the teeth??

Or what it's actual intended purpose / industry is??

I've been using plastic poster hanging strips. Think I bought them from Big W or Kmart. They're used to put on the edges of posters so you can hang them from a hook.

What about some clear plastic tube slit down the centre

I'd like to find something off the shelf, without slitting, as I never get it straight and would want something small.

Just looked at it. 5mm x 10mm is about right. Fits snugly on the saw and can be cut to length with scissors. Similar to this (without the string)

I use electrical conduit. Use a hacksaw blade to cut the slit.

I think the ones in your pic are Slide binder bars (https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Slide+Binding+Bars&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=rcs&gws_rd=cr&ei=psdZUq_kEs-ZlQW0koA4). Office supplies places stock them in A4 size but I don't know where the saw places buy by the meter.

Slide Binder Bars | Cavalier Art Supplies (http://www.cavalierart.com.au/catalog/folios/binder-bars/slide-binder-bars)
1200 mm = $3.45

It would appear that the slide bars are the same thing as the poster hangers at kmart etc.
