What happens here
The worker begins by using a circular saw to precisely cut wooden deck boards, likely joists or blocking, to the required length. This involves positioning the saw blade along a marked line on the board and guiding the saw to make a clean, accurate cut. The boards appear to be pressure-treated lumber, commonly used for outdoor deck construction.
Goal: Prepare wooden deck boards by cutting them to the correct dimensions for the frame.
