Circular Saw Hack

I don't have a table saw (too big to store) but I needed to cut a board in a way well suited for a table saw.

So, I used clamps and a 1 by 2 on my circular saw to create this temporary tool.



Then I tested in on the board I needed to cut as shown here,


Looks right. Then using the bed of my pick up truck as a work holder, I made the cut. The board is redwood so that make it all a lot easier. Here is the final result.



A 15 foot angled cut as good as a table saw could have done.

Duct Tape Goes Mobile

Duct tape is available in black, but some may say that in such a case, it is actually gaffers tape.

In any event, black duct tape can be great for dressing up your car as you can see in this photo.


Add a little red and green duct tape on the front, then tape on a action figure as a hood ornament, and presto, you have your own art car.
