Any sci-fi with aliens where humans are not the less advanced race?

Tried restoring an antique saw (more pics in body)
After researching the medallion on the handle I found out it's a 1940s Disston D8 26" 10TPI crosscut saw
I tried to follow the process from this video https://youtu.be/cN8yMAXp54s for the most part. Haven't done any sharpening on it yet. Still need the tools.

Got some more shaping to do on the top. Not sure how I'm going to finish it yet. Can you put renaissance wax over poly?
