If you’ve ever used a jigsaw before, you might be familiar with the fact that it’s notoriously difficult to perfectly cut along a straight line. But there is an easy way to do dead straight cuts, that doesn’t require a lot of practice at all! Mark the start and end points of your cut, that you would normally connect using a straight line. Now take your jigsaw and place the blade right where you would cut into the wood. Now take a piece of wood that is perfectly straight and clamp it to the board you want to cut, touching the metal frame surrounding the bottom of your jigsaw. Repeat the same process on the other side Now start cutting with your jigsaw along the clamped piece of wood using it as a guiding fence. Make sure to always apply a slight pressure towards the track though, to really keep the saw on track! This trick works perfectly for circular saws too btw 🙂

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



  7. RJP Trucking on January 13, 2022 at 10:48 pm

    WTF you using a jig saw for circular saw job….



  8. Angela Smith on January 13, 2022 at 10:48 pm

    Awesome tip 😎 thank you 🙏🏽😎



  9. Jacy Gardner on January 13, 2022 at 10:49 pm

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



  10. Spencer Dyson on January 13, 2022 at 10:52 pm

    Using a jig… for a jigsaw?



  11. Syed Inayat on January 13, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    Judieie



  12. Syed Inayat on January 13, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    Nice job



  13. john kidd on January 13, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    This has been around since power saws have been around. That said not everyone has worked in construction as is obvious by some "projects" I’ve seen. Look at the bench I’ve made and you did not have the hard heart to tell them it’s a dogs dinner.



  14. Syed Inayat on January 13, 2022 at 10:59 pm

    Nice



  15. JaJuan Russell on January 13, 2022 at 11:02 pm

    So… we present a one problem, and then we offer a solution to a different problem…

    Okay 👌 🆗️

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



  17. Dropped Boez on January 13, 2022 at 11:09 pm

    You need to find another job!



  18. Dakota John on January 13, 2022 at 11:09 pm

    Turn the jig saw backwards for accuracy when clamping



  19. space frog on January 13, 2022 at 11:10 pm

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



  20. Syed Inayat on January 13, 2022 at 11:12 pm

    Sed liufe

  24. Max Powers on January 13, 2022 at 11:24 pm

    Step 4, pray your blade doesn’t flex.

    But what if I want to do a straight cut in spherical geometry🤔🤔🤔



  27. Tommy Lakin on January 13, 2022 at 11:30 pm

    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
