and that people is my daily rant lol
Thank you for the advice, Last time I tried to saw something I was over eager, the wood wasn't secured and the saw somehow managed to skip out of the cut I was making and cut across the pointer finger of my left hand... I'm a fuckin reo... lolim quite sure it wont. just plan out what your going to do, measure twice everytime, take your time with the saw to make sure you get it all straight, if your a beginner it may help measure and mark the timber on all sides and draw a line right the way around before u cut so u can keep it straight. always remember when cutting to make sure the piece of wood your cutting is secure. so a vice or something if you have one, if not maybe jam it into something u will figure it out. if your right handed place your left hand close to where your cutting to hold the wood steady and also raise the knuckle on your first finger so that you can use it as a guide for for your saw. dont cut you finger off and let the saw do the work dont force it.
crooked cuts are the most common cause of sloppy looking work because if you have crooked cuts nothing will sit together neat and straight.
thats about all the advice i can give because im no pro either just stuff i have learned through trial and error... mostly error lol. but i get some pretty tidy results these days
