Don’t cut OSB like this! 🤦 #framing #carpentry #construction #oops
What happens here
With the cut line marked, proceed to cut the OSB sheet using a Makita circular saw. The video shows the saw blade actively cutting through the material. During this process, it's crucial to ensure that the material is adequately supported, but that these supports are positioned strategically to prevent the saw blade from contacting them. The mistake shown later in the video occurs because the wooden support was placed directly under the cut line.
Goal: Cut the OSB sheet accurately along the marked line.
