What happens here
A track saw, guided by a long rail, is used to make a perfectly straight and clean cut along the perimeter of the installed deck boards. This is crucial for creating a crisp edge, often in preparation for a picture-frame border or to trim off any inconsistencies. The saw moves smoothly along the clamped track, ensuring high precision.
Goal: To achieve a perfectly straight and finished edge along the deck's perimeter.
