Make sure your blade is as small as can be, and even then it's still gonna happen with a jig saw

Totally agree!!! I started looking at getting a track saw but with this tip I can hold off for now. 🎉

Ok, but where from I have to take a perfectly flat surface? Flatlandia is okay to use?

To solve naysayers in the comments, use two straight bits of wood to create a track so the blade cannot to deviate. The guy is talking about using a jigsaw. For those that don't don't have a circular saw.

The issue is with many jigsaws the blade, as it is thin, goes on some side, so to guide the plate is actually pointless. And it is not about the brand. Even very small difference can push the blade out of the line. With soft materials that guidance could work, but not with hard wood.

Chads only cut wood with compass and ruler!

You have great information I think you're starting video with the Juke so I was a little bit ridiculous but if that is all you have to make the cut that I approve I approve I approve 100% because not everybody has all the tools needed for complete carpentry work

papa flammy goes burrrrrrr burrrrrrrr

Did that years ago to make a door in our rental shorter - and the blade flexed and went sideways below the guiding rail. Now we have to live with the deep curvy cut in the door...

Nice job

Good tip!

Circular saw yes but jig saw no, the blade bend very easily. I crooked pnce the first time i tried

Good stuff

Interesting

what if you cannot pull out the wood, for example you are cutting a piece in a heavy bedframe

to make this easier to repeat... id clamp wood either side, for an actual channel for the jigsaw to go down. The first time I did it, I'd also measure the three marks. The right stright edge, the blade mark and the left straight edge distances... this way every time you want a cut, measure cut line, then measure out the two tracks...

Level 1 skill

Good thinking, batman.

Also called a 'fence' :)

Thanks for the tip to cut in straight lines but what about the cuts you showed at the start😢

Yeah I will just use my track saw, thanks

Nice

Can you show the close view of that final cut??? 😂 I bet, if you take that fallen cut piece reattach with hand and see, we can find the drifts & gaps howmuch it might had caused. No matter how finer the jigsaw blade is. Carpentry basic: Don't expect a straight line if your saw is not parallel to the board. In jigsaw's case, it is perpendicular, so it will oscillate to produce curved cuts. Also the blade will be thin for the purpose to bend. For straight lines, the bull "Circular Saw"... The Legend!

A quality level will work as a straight edge of you can't find a scrap with a straight edge.

A Lot say ITS a old Trick but Not one told that the fence need to be longer then what you Cut...to Not start in a angle😂😂😂

I'm not really convinced by this given the nature of jigsaw blades. On the other hand, if you also clamped a second fence on the other side of the jigsaw that would probably improve things. Many people here say "use a circular saw". But what if you find circular saws completely, totally and utterly terrifying?

Also sometimes you want to cut small rectangles, like for a kitchen sink or smaller, like actually shon in the video. That wouldn't work very well with a circular saw.

Not everyone can afford that kinda of stuff, especially when starting out. It's a no brainer *doink UsE tABLe SaW*, but money doesn't grow on trees for those without a daddy. Anyways, the tip is only good if making short cuts. The longer you cut, the more you find yourself needing to keep the saw against the rail. What happens after that, every newb will eventually learn. This is why most good jigsaw jigs, have bearings to hold the blade straight.

just cut with a circle saw lol

You have a table saw. Why are you using a jigsaw to cut a straight line?

I tried it and it doesn’t work

WOW

German made a time machine to steal my invention from the future. Still don't know how to cut SMALL woods using a jigsaw...

This tip can create bad results. Most of the jigsaws I know, had at least a small deviation between direction of the sawblade and jigsaw. If you have your jigsaw parallel to the line, then your blade might not, starting to drift away slightly. Then, while pressing the saw onto the rail, the sawblade has to tilt and will not create an exact perpendicular cut. But you'll only see it at the end, then it's too late. Works for a circular saw much better. But be careful with a jigsaw.

@wildeast66

@@automachinehead Either I do not understand you, or you didn't understand me. What I meant: If the blade is not parallel to the saw - which happens often - the blade itself will drift sideways in the wood. But the saw - and therefore the point, where the blade is connected to the saw - will not (due to the guard). That causes the blade to bend sideways (top part fixed distance to the guard, lower part drifting to either side), which it doesn't resist very much. In the end the cut is neither at the right place nor perpendicular to the surface. The point is: To get a straight cut along a line, in many saws you need to angle the saw at least a very small bit. Especially for long cuts very small deviations can add up significantly. Circular saws cut themselves a path, that is wider than the blade and they are more resistant to sideways bend. They force their way parallel to the guard.

Tools are invented for it's own purpose & engineered for that purpose only. Straight cut: "Circular Saw, Circular Saw, Circular Saw". Zoooom... No excuses... A straight cut! Curve & intrinsic cuts: "Jigsaw with variable blades" Jigsaw blade moves up and down on a small circular wheel in the front with variable speed. The blade are designed to bend or drift according to the pressure applied which is logical common sense that, then only it can make curve/ intrinsic cuts accordingly. One can ride the jigsaw's base plate in a parallel guide(s) but no one can stop the oscillation or drift of the blade in that small wheel ( _Unless we convert a jigsaw by placing it upside down and guiding the blade will two wheels like a table saw, is another stupidity_ 😂). First of all, this kind of conversion or porting the functionality of a tool for what it is NOT meant for itself is stupidity or against the manufacturer's guidelines. No wonder, you can find tons of stupid videos on, how to convert a jigsaw into an aeroplane? too...😂 Verdict: Use the appropriate tool for what it is meant for!

Tips for cutting straight hole inside ❌ Fence with clamps, common and too simple

Yeah. Don’t try that with a parkside circular saw. On mine the frame is mounted in a 5 degree angle to the blade…

A professional would have the right saw... if the quack you hired busts this out, your gonna get what you paid for

Or don't use a jig saw , use a circular saw Or if using a jigsaw don't use the cheap and nasties Or budget ones

Nice trig thx Pun intended

this don't work for jiasaw because of blade

Step 5. Try the skill saw???

sorry bud.. as a profesional i wouln tot reccomend that trick... does only work witrh a brand new saw blade... after that 1 side of the blade can be a litle more dulled and the blade wants to go the other way.

If you’re going to go through the trouble why not use a circular saw?

Just use circular saw for straight cut. Easier and save time and effort.

The blade of a jigsaw tends to bend and choose the softest parts of the wood as its path. It's such a terrible tool. I used this way followed by a second pass with a router to get straight cuts. You loose a bit of material, buy hey, that's what you do when you've no money to buy good tools....

"It's super easy to make straight lines with any saw. Just use a straight edge..." Can you also show me how I draw a straight line with a pencil using a ruler? Also, jigsaw is probably the worst tool for this "trick" as it's blade flexes and rarely makes an actual straight cut regardless of if you're using a fence. But you're getting views and subs so who am I to judge
