selection of circular saws from thetoolstore.ca |
Regardless of the saw in hand, they are powerful and attack your wood aggressively, usually too aggressively to be thought of as a finishing tool. We have filled our shops with sliding mitre saws, table saws and band saws rather than learn to control our circular saw.
Before I get crazy and get rid of my saw I think I am going to make a saw guide to try things out. This video is one of several I have found showing ideas and methods. This is not a decision that I am going to make lightly, or quickly but it is something that I will ponder. For example this looks great for sheet stock, but what about ripping off 1 inch strips from a 6 inch board, how do you clamp the guide on?
If there are folks out there with experience I'd love to hear from you.
