Default sawing large plysheets

Jim ) writes:
I don't know how many sheets you have to cut, but it may be worth your
while to build a simple stand to cut the sheets standing on edge. It's
a lot better than climbing on top of the wood you're cutting. Cutting
on edge supports your cut pieces, eliminating the tearing off of the
last bit of the cut.


do you clamp on some sort of support for the saw? My power
saw is too heavy for me to use in any but a hoizontal position.

And setting your blade to just a bit more than your material thickness
makes the best cuts.

I would never try to cut a curve with a circular saw.


try it. you'll like it.
