Miter saw tip: make a “stop block” to make repetitive cuts without measuring each time 🪚 Just cut one piece of your lumber to the right size, line that up with the saw blade, then clamp a scrap of wood down on the other side. Now you can butt the lumber up against the stop block to get the same size cut each time. Stick around for more DIY tips and to see what I’m doing with all these little half rounds 👀 PS I realize the way my arms are crossed looks weird on video but that’s what felt the most natural and therefore most safe way for me to cut this short a piece of trim 🤣 I couldn’t hold the other side because my fingers would be too close to the blade. During the day I would’ve opened the garage door and set it up the other way but alas, I often DIY at night after work. When using power tools always wear safety gear, follow manufacturer instructions, and use common sense ☺️ Have you used a stop block before?
