The Must Have Circular Saw Jig
Now if you are cutting across the grain of your finished piece you could get some grain tear out on the top surface and at the far end of the cut because the saw blade teeth are rotating out of the wood on these two surfaces.
The way to solve this problem is to set up your jig on the line you want to cut and the score the surface of the material being cut with your utility knife, using the jig to guide your utility knife. At the end I use my combination square as a guide for the utility knife cut.

I’ve used this technique for many years. It works great and is also easier to cut whole sheets of plywood than struggling with a table saw.
Well I do not know how else you would cut a straight line with a hand saw, unless you had a guide to do it with!!!
Made one a few days ago.
2-4″ rigid foam insulation and that jig and you have a cheep easy panel saw. I’ve built hundreds of cabinets in driveways that way.
