Follow:
Correct Saw
Make sure you have the right saw for the job.
Mark Up
Use pencil and square to align and draw. Then clamp the wood.
Start Slow
At a 45 angle, a few light strokes to make a groove.
Bigger Strokes
Keep elbow in line with blade and wrist straight. Begin larger firmer strokes.
Relax
Take it easy, keep strokes consistent. Let the teeth do the work.
DAB Words:
I you ever see a glorious rustic or vintage saw or any tool for that matter. If you can buy it, oil it and fit it to the wall in your workshop. A number of years down the line you will have a spectacular looking wall. Ive seen a number of these and they look amazing.
