One of the most common types of cuts you'll have to make with a circular saw is the CROSSCUT. This short video from The Honest Carpenter will show you how to make the fastest, easiest crosscuts possible with the circular saw, and very simple tools and techniques!
Circular Saw Basics: EASIEST CROSSCUTS!! (6 Tips For Fastest, Easiest Circular Saw Crosscuts!)
Circular saws intimidate new DIYers because they're a FREEHAND TOOL, meaning that they have no system of guides built in to keep them on track.
To make very accurate circular saw crosscuts, I believe that you need a guide that is easy to use, and always at hand.
I prefer to use the common SPEED SQUARE.
By holding the speed square against the edge of a board, you can use it as a guide for the edge of the sole plate of your circular saw.
I like to keep the bar of the speed square along the edge of the board nearest to me--though some people hang the bar from the far edge.
It's often a good idea to clamp your speed square before making your circular saw cut. Just be sure that the clamp is not in the way of the circular saw body.
You can also use the speed square to make ANGLED CUTS with the circular saw!
Just pivot the speed square at the corner until the correct angle number is aligned with the edge of the board. Then, use the edge of the speed square like normal as a guide for the edge of the circular saw sole plate.
It's a good idea to clamp down your board as well to prevent movement or wandering.
Just remember: CIRCULAR SAWS ARE DANGEROUS!
This video is just a source of information. It's up to you to use tools safely! Follow all safety instructions in your manual, and be sure to seek help or guidance from a professional if you need it. Never make a cut if you feel that it's unsafe to do so!
Thanks for watching!

I taught middle school woodshop for 40 years. I really appreciate your efforts to give good safe instruction to the next generation. Apprentice training served this function in the old days. Due to the lack of shop classes in schools today, it is up to KZfaq and other online sources to pass on needed skills to the next generation. Thanks again!

@terobb0 2 жыл бұрын

1 item novices need to know: let the side with the off cut hang free to avoid pinching the blade. There’s a temptation to make your cut with support from other boards or saw horses on both sides of the cut, but that will lead to pinching the blade and the saw will try to back up on you. The other method is to fully support the workpiece with a sacrificial board or piece of foam or whatever (this works well when breaking down plywood and you intend to use both sides of the cut).

@simpleman283 2 жыл бұрын

If cutting between saw horses, you must apply vertical force by the hand you are holding wood with to your work piece so that it feels almost like it if floating on the horse to your right. Otherwise like terobbO said it will pinch the blade and kick back on you.

Great tips - including the important safety tips, particularly for those new to a circular saw. It's now a few years since I started out in DIY carpentry but I still always take my time and treat the circular saw with as much respect ("fear" is good!) as I did the first time I ever used one. Just one thing with the video is at the end with the unclamped repeat cuts. I know people will do this, particularly once experienced, but I still clamp EVERY time. Getting lazy with a circular saw is how you get hurt with a circular saw.

Even though I have done joinery work for over 40 years now every now and then I watch videos like yours as a refresher of all the safety tips . . . it is so easy to become sloppy and cocky and that's when you'll make that mistake which could be severe. I do agree that apprentiships in skills like woodworking are harder to come across these days, and if it wasn't for people like you on KZfaq I just wonder how many more admissions to A&E we'd get ! Woodworking is a industry that isn't without it potentially severe hazards. I'm amazed at how many people take out the blade that supports the guard on table saws instead of just the overhead guard, which leaves the horrific chance of kick back. A friend of mine was hit by a kick back and caused internal injuries so bad that 2 days later he died, in a lot of pain !!! Scary shit eh !! Keep up the valuable work that you do on KZfaq. Cheers.
