What happens here
The video introduces the 'Cut Boss' tool, highlighting its purpose for making repetitive cuts. The user demonstrates how to set the tool to a desired measurement, specifically mentioning 12 and a half inches. The tool is designed to accommodate the width of the circular saw's shoe (e.g., 1 and a half inches), so no additional adjustments are needed for the saw's offset. After setting the measurement, the tool is placed on the lumber, and a circular saw (a DeWalt model is shown) is used to make a precise cut, gliding along the guide. This process is shown to be quick and results in consistently sized pieces, useful for deck framing components like blocking or column supports.
