I am a senior lady who is relatively capable of learning new skills, and this is one of them. My man is not very handy and so I am always wanting to learn how to do things that seem pretty simple to learn (ie: cut a simple piece of wood with out using a hand saw!). Thank you for your tutorials. I have certainly learned more watching your videos than from any 'salesman' at Home Depot or other by asking DIY'ers.

The smallest amount of knowledge and experience provides a global amount of information to the uninitiated - thank you. I wish the salesperson at my Home Depot had explained these things when I bought my DeWalt drill / circular saw combo.

Well said David. Thank you for the comment.

I just wanted to say that through your videos and some other peoples I was able to build a gazebo that I designed myself for my backyard. It also has a base to support the hot tub it’s very strong and me and my wife have very much enjoyed it. It’s been a while since I’ve been as proud to achieve something. Thank you very much for your excellent instructional videos and I hope you can help many more people gain these kinds of skills.

That is awesome Freek! Great work, and thanks for sharing.

probably the most complete video on the circular saw

#1: Master eye - everyone has a 'Master eye' - the eye which has priority in the information your brain processes and it really should be the eye that is looking at the cut line (or place you are drilling). To test which is your master eye, put your hands together leaving a small hole between them and your arms out straight- now look thru the hole at a point some distance away, slowly bending your arms while keeping the distant point visible thru the hole until you reach your face, you will find one eye is looking thru the hole - that is your Master eye and needs to be unobstructed. You can have a left master eye and be right handed and vice versa (like me) - if the master eye can't see the line it is much more likely your cut will wander away from the line or guide. #5 Splintering: Depending on the quality of the face veneer on the ply, masking/painter's tape won't work or even make the mess worse. Just take a striking knife or even any sort of sharp knife and carefully run it along a straight edge down the keep side of the cut line, this will sever the fibers leaving a near hand cut surface. If its really fancy veneer do the knife cut on BOTH sides, and yes, best side away from the power saw.

Thanks for the tips. One thing I noticed about blade left or right. Depending on the blade size there might not be much of a choice. For example, at HD/Lowes I only see blade right circular saws for 7-1/4 while blade left are 6-1/2 and smaller.

I have a makita circular saw and it has a decent electric blade stop function, and it almost eliminates kick back potential entirely, so long as you disengage the button as soon as the kick starts. Easier said than done for some of course, but I instinctively do that, luckily enough. I did have this saw try to kick back at me once through complacency on site like how most accidents happen and I just let go of the trigger and it just stopped. Since then I feel more safe with it. Table saw kick back seems to happen a lot faster and is impossible to stop once it happens, but with an electric brake on a circular saw, doesn't worry me at all anymore. I had kick backs years ago before electric breaks and stuff came about, and it was death defying at times, couple of the times the saw came flying back passed me like a bullet and crashed into things behind me, one of the times it hit a wall behind me and made a good dent in it. Dangerous stuff working in those days. Was lucky I avoided injury both times. I'm not trying to make people complacent, I'm just saying get saws with electric brakes and disengage the button as soon as a kick begins and you will more than likely be ok. Not always though, tools will always be dangerous while people are in (or OUT of) control of them.

great information

Thanks for your video very informative very good, I have been in the game for many years, in the video you mentioned many tips and tricks, one of mine is to Not set the depth of your saw too deep this will stop splintering and to score the plywood with a Stanley knife, I think you call them box cutters.

When do hold the guard and when don’t you hold the guard? Do you need to hold the guard when you are making miter cuts or bevel cuts?

Apprentice carpenter here. Blade right, even though maybe a bit safer (is is really) is so awkard to achieve a precise cut being a righty and eyes being on the left of the saw.

One great tip is to use speed square to cut boards 90 degree angles with circular saw by using it as guide support instead of taking them to the miter saw. Saves time and gives a great result.

No Karl, I just have videos for each one separately. What I would recommend really depends on what types of DIY projects you will be doing. What will you be doing? Thank you for the blessing!!

Nice video. I'm a beginner. I have a question: Is it useful or overkill to have 2 circular saws, one with a special blade for ripping and one with a special blade for crosscutting, because i don't want to swap blades. I want my crosscuts to be very smooth and i don't want to make the circular saw screw dull. I won't have a table saw soon, because they are a bit expensive. Hope to hear from you soon. Many thanks in advance

If you have to money you can certainly buy two saws and use them that way, but I don't think it's necessary.

Hey question for you, you seem to use only corded power tools in your videos. Do you prefer them over cordless, why?

Should my circular saw vibrate on Startup? How do I control that vibration since it’s affecting my cuts. Is it a normal thing for all circular saw?

@@TrainingHandsAcademy Yes it’s new. The good part is once I get the saw blade into the wood it stays steady. My only problem is with the first cut. Should I be holding down the saw with both hands? Cos’ I’m trying to use the saw with one hand even as a New User. :)

@TrainingHandsAcademy

Yes, both hands would be helpful. Let me know if you continue to have issues.

I can't get my circular saw to cut straight with a guide even. I think the shoe is not parallel to the blade and there is no fixing it. When I try to cut plywood with it and put a guide on, the blade always start to bind across the cut. I've tried manhandling the guide to get it into parallel but I don't think I've been successful. I guess I may need to buy a more expensive saw.
