What happens here
Using the circular saw, begin cutting the lumber according to the plans. For the chair legs, you will cut 40-inch long pieces. Remember to mark your cuts accurately and, as recommended in the video, aim to 'save the line' by cutting on one side of your pencil mark, ensuring the line remains on the finished piece for potential fine-tuning. This technique helps maintain accuracy and allows for adjustments if needed. Prepare all the rough cuts needed for one chair before moving on to angled cuts.
Goal: Precisely cut all lumber according to the provided plans using a circular saw, ensuring straight and accurate lines. The video demonstrates cutting pieces for the chair legs and other components.
