11 WORST CIRCULAR SAW MISTAKES!! And How To Avoid them...(DON'T DO THESE THINGS! Kickback/Binding)
Circular Saws are one of the most useful tools...and one of the most dangerous. This short video from The Honest Carpenter will show you 11 of the worst circular saw mistakes, and how to avoid them!
--Circular saws are as powerful as miter saws, but they're FREEHAND. Controlling this amount of cutting power is extremely important!
11 CIRCULAR SAW MISTAKES:
1. Getting in the cut path--keep all body parts free of the cut path!
2. Binding the blade--don't twist the saw, and don't let the wood close up on the blade. This sill bind the blade causing KICKBACK
3. Failure to prop the cut--make sure you lift your material off of the surface you're cutting on, possibly with scrap prop blocks. This will prevent you from cutting your work surface.
4. Setting the saw blade too deep--never let the circular saw blade more than 1/4" past the bottom of the material you're cutting.
5. Adjust the saw while in motion--don't do this! Don't adjust the depth or bevel while the saw is spinning.
6. Don't retract the saw while it's spinning--let the circular saw wind down before retracting it from a partial cut.
7. Removing the blade guard--pro framers will sometimes remove or pin back their circular saw blade guards. Don't do this!
8. Don't set a saw "blade down"--you're supposed to flip circular saws over when you set them down. This prevents an exposed blade from causing the saw to kickback or run away.
9. Starting up with contact--make sure your circular saw blade is not in contact with wood when you start it up. Pull it back just a bit, then spin up the saw.
10. Cord drag--be careful of you're cord getting hung up on the end of the board when you're pushing the circular saw forward in a cut.
11. Forgetting trigger discipline--keep your finger off the circular saw trigger until you're ready to cut with the saw!

Having cut off my forefinger at the middle knuckle with a circular saw, but not before it had shredded the flesh off the front and the vibration of the blade wrenching the finger off my hand entirely, I ended up having what remained of the finger glued back on with wire and a series of skin grafts from my inner forearm. I have a a deal of difficulty, all these decades later, in using the finger and cannot close it to complete a fist or full grasp. I had recurring nightmares for over a year, afterwards and, awake, had the sweats just thinking it could have been my whole hand or entire arm I could have cut off. This comment is directed to those who have luckily stumbled upon this channel or this particular post. Listen to this guy! He ain't lying. These things can quite easily kill you, if you don't take precautions, don't keep your wits about you, (even switched off that blade can still bite you!) and don't give it the respect it deserves. Look on it as a psycho. It hasn't killed you yet, but get too relaxed or complacent and it still just might! And, yes, my mind is still cast back to that day _every_ time I pick mine up! Obliged for the time you took to read this diatribe.

I shredded the skin off the palm side of 3 fingers at the first joint of my hand using a tale saw. I was very lucky. I went to the ER and they treated it like it was a burn because there wasn't enough skin to stich back together. The skin grew back but one finger is a little thinner than the others and there is scaring, but they work. It was a very lucky wake up call. THINK TWICE - CUT ONCE

@@JM-iv3up I'm experienced enough with them to use them confidently, but they still scare me enough to keep me careful. I suggest practising your cuts on either thin or soft wood.

Secure your work piece properly so it can't move around while you're cutting. And take your time

This is similar to something I learned from a cabinet-maker friend. He says before making a cut with a power tool, *look at the blade* , it'll help to get you focused (think De Niro in Deer Hunter: "This is this!"). Sometimes we think muscle memory and familiarity are enough, but they won't always keep us safe if our mind is elsewhere.

Wish I watched this video before I used mine for the first time. My dad gave me all of his Dewalt 20v tools which included a circular saw. My first time using it was a small project cut just to get a solid piece of wood under our microwave that sits on a bakers rack… it was 100° out and I wanted to be in the shade so my sawhorses were on rocks and uneven heights, I’m a very cautious person and always treat tools with respect they deserve.

@mrCetus 2 года назад

Good tips. Here's a couple more tips. If I want squared cuts on 2x's boards, I use a triangle angle guide so I don't have to worry about my cut line. When I cut larger boards, like plywood, I will anchor the board to my work table with clamps and then anchor an aluminum straight edge on the side of my cut line. That way all I have to do is keep the saw rail against the straight edge and, again, not have to worry about guiding the saw with my hand. It's a bit more work, but I get more accurate cuts that way.

@Jizzlewobbwtfcus 6 месяцев назад

REALLY nice tip! I actually bought a Straight Edge Clamp a couple of weeks ago even before I bought my Circular Saw today because it seemed like a great thing to have as I have one rather large piece of wood to cut (about 1m x 4m). All I need now is one of those massive metal triangles which I might check out tomorrow. This beginner REALLY appreciates your input ty : ]

@imnotmike 7 месяцев назад

Those disks are much safer than a circular saw blade, generally. They typically won't cut you if you accidentally touch one for a moment. My grinder has a safety feature that automatically turns it off if it comes in contact with your skin. It can sense the amount of resistance I guess. They will rip right through your fingernails and into your fingers if you touch them with your fingernails rather than your skin, though. The real thing with those is good safety glasses are an absolute must, and honestly, you need to wear a long sleeve shirt and long pants, because the hot sparks from cutting metal really hurt when they land on you, and you could jump and lose control of the tool because of the pain. And be very careful to not let the metal twist or move while you're working, or it will bind on the disk, and the disk will shatter and send shrapnel everywhere. I've never had this happen, but I saw a friend do this once and it was terrifying. He tried to cut a piece of rebar without securing it and the rebar twisted and shattered the disk. Clamp down whatever you are working on so it can't move.

It is kind of like washing your hands for at least 20 seconds. It take prolonged discipline to get it ingrained so you do it each time. Using power tools is similar, you get used to following the proper procedure. Yes, it is more complicated but both involve adherence to best practices.

@davorzmaj753 2 года назад

I'm pretty new to circular saws (one smallish project under my belt). I set a rule for myself when I first got the thing home from the store: the saw is only plugged in while I have my protective glasses on. If I want to remove them for some reason, I unplug the saw first. That little ritual helped me to avoid accidentally making cuts without the eye protection in place. In fact, if I'm doing a bit of work that doesn't require sawing (e.g. measuring, aligning, clamping), I unplug first. Not a precaution I can see pros taking -- but then, they use the tool enough to hopefully ingrain safety practices. As an occasional hobbiest user, I don't, so I have to think them through each time -- and for me, time isn't money, so I can afford the time cost of the extra "ceremony".

@@christheother9088 Yes... up to a point: a very cheap saw can be bad enough too. I learned the hard way when I bought my first circular saw 30 years ago; it was a "professional line" Black and Decker 7 1/4" that came with a then novel "Piranha" Tungsten Carbide teeth, so the blade was OK quality, but the saw wasn't: The damn saw had too much noise, vibration and the damn blade shaft had too much axial play, so my cuts took a much wider "kerf", so that when ripping a 3/4" plywood 4 ft wide sheet into several narrow shelves, the damn saw "ate" a lot of wood from the too loose shaft dancing side to side. Some days later, the same B&D salesman that sold me that P.O.S. tool, confessed to me that they had just returned from Maryland headquarters, where they were told about the superiority of the german Bosch, Japanese Makita and other several brands over the mediocre B&D models... but too late for me to return it. since then, I learned to buy the best tool AND BLADE instead of trying to "save" money, trashed in lower quality tools.

@zianawind2970 Год назад

Thanks.. I started working with self taught Gung Ho professionals now... and they were just unarticulated or overall more interested in getting the job done than spending time thoroughly teaching me (I was also to green to learn fast enough) and I ended up with tons of blanks in my head about using tools properly. Having videos and taking my time to absorb the info properly really helps TONS it takes the edge of nerves off and broadens my skills and view of what I’m doing. Having proper basics doesnt really happen until after you get hands on experience yet having videos to rethink about things is awesome help.. also many old timers just forget about basic stuff and that’s really bad but well not all workers are teachers too so it’s very good to have video class available!

@manuelvarela2407 3 года назад

Amazing video. I agree with you on all the tips. Especially the one about checking the guard every time you finish a cut. I do this all the time. Sometimes it does get stuck, and the guard doesn't come down. If that happens...you know the rest. Also, I'd like to add an extra tip: Always use a sharp blade, a new one if you can. Ironically, the shaper the blade, the less chance of getting cut, because you don't have to "fight" with a dull blade, increasing the chance of binding or other hazards. Thanks for your videos, and keep them coming.

@danielferrer8856 3 года назад

I definitely agree with you, Manuel. Fighting a dull blade is never a fun time, I’d you know what I mean ;) Some workers alter the lower guard by tying or wedging it open. Do not do this-rather leave the guard to pivot so that the blade is always safe. Also, if your circular saw blade catches on thin-shave cuts or angled cuts, rotate and hold it open with an extended fingertip while still keeping both hands on the saw. AND always wait for the blade to stop moving before setting the saw down on your work surface. Getting a circular saw with a blade brake will reduce your wait times. Those are just a few tips that have helped me in my years of sawing and circulating

@saradiaz6074 3 года назад

I completely concur, I think this is quite the awesome enlightening and educational content. I too check the guard each time I cut and utilize a more honed edge after each usage. On a long cut, after setting up, I always walk the cut with the base off to make sure I’m not going to get tangled, stuck or some other disaster.

I strongly agree with your point. When it comes to carpentry or anything wood related, it is of utmost importance to ALWAYS be extremely careful, especially with electrical saws and blades. Just one tiny slip up, and you could lose a finger or two. Also, I think I know you. I remember you worked on the wood floors of my house. I loved the end result of your product.

Thank you for posting such a great video, This is also probably my most used woodworking tool. The tips you gave are not just gospel for beginners, but a nice refresher for the experienced carpenter that has gotten a little too comfortable through constant use and repetition. As Chris H mentioned, I went to using sheets of 2" foam board insulation years ago as a backer for cutting. Especially helpful when breaking down large sheets on a floor or even bench top use when using my Makita 3 3/8 small saw (also a huge fan of Makita). Again, really great video and sleep well knowing you saved a lot of fingers and trips to emergency rooms ! !

@dalex2902 3 года назад

Total saw noob here: I kind of chuckled when you said "First mistake is putting any part of your body in its cut path" because well it seems so obvious to not do that. Why would anyone do that? but then at 2:01 you show how wrapping your fingers under the wood to grip or hold the wood while passing the saw over, is something that I never even thought of and just might have actually done so, thank you for saving my fingers and I will never chuckle ever again.

@raywright2401 3 года назад

Sorry, first time I ever saw someone put their hand UNDERNEATH a running blade was just NOW. Totally counterintuitive and dangerous but not out of the question for idiots.

@N269 3 года назад

Maybe that's why so many CSs are right side/edge cut? Most, not all, people are right handed and might, if they didn't think, put their left hand on work piece. Hopefully the shoe is wide enough so fingers can't reach and get under blade? But, you are right, it is obvious not to do that.

He means behind the saw but on the same line as the saw path, so it doesn't run back and cut your ball sack as I was warned as a kid on a job site, "Cause then what use will you be to your wife"

@andrewgrant3023 Год назад

Great video, very useful content for newbies and the more experienced. OThere is also another reason for not allowing too much blade to hang below the cut. If the end of the blade guard is too low it won't lift on the edge of the piece, but will slide below instead and suddenly you wonder why you can't push the saw forward anymore and you might well twist the blade and ruin your cut.

@sarahkoplin3150 2 года назад

If anyone sees this comment and is a total novice with power tools, it is worth your time and money to have someone sit with you and teach you in person!

Great Vid Ethan, I think you've covered everything. Makita make great tools. They had great ideas in the early 80's with battery drills, then just stopped, and playing catch up since. I've found damp or treated timber can be a problem, sticking and stopping the saw from retracting, and yes, years ago on site, late teens, I cut my saws cable. I caught a telling off from the Foreman, who, after I repaired it, took it away, and did the same thing himself ! I find putting the lead over your shoulder if poss a good move, but not always an option. Thanks for the vid.👍

Hearing protection is definitely overlooked by many, and a bit of a pain. Personally, I like the ear plugs made for musicians/concerts. They block out just enough of the high pitched, very damaging frequencies, without making it impossible to hold a conversation. That said, literally anything is better than nothing, even a pair of headphones (just keep music volume lowish).

@IshaniMehta Год назад

This is an excellent list. Some of these are common sense, so I've not been doing those myself because safety is most important. But some of them - especially the ones related to binding and jumping of the blade due to certain ways of cutting - have been very helpful. I have had all these issues when cutting vitrified tile, which is why I looked for such a video, to make sure I don't face such issues when working with wood. A circular saw is amazing, but easily dangerous too. These tips should become a part of the operating manuals!

@jimbeard8947 2 года назад

One way to safely stop the blade spinning is to 'kill" the speed at the very end of your cut. This takes practice, but professional carpenters learn to do this as a matter of course. Of course most pros will use a worm-drive more than a circular, except when the latter is more appropriate. Also a good way to keep the cord out of your way is to drape it over your shoulder as you move. Particularly on very long cuts, like thru a sheet of plywood the long way. I agree with the tips about hearing protection. Also with a circular saw sometimes the smaller ones (5") may be more appropriate than the 7" one. And I recommend smaller people, like women of a diy trend, or newbies try working with a smaller circular saw initially, then building up to a bigger one after experience.

@Sunnbuzz 2 года назад

I've lost count of how many trades I've seen "drop" the saw after finishing a cut while the blade is still spinning down. I'm sure Worm saws and the old original Skil saw were made for abuse, A 7" Skil saw 15 yrs ago was my first power tool I hated it from day one. Last month I bought a cordless 6.5 circular saw, I don't need beastly tools !!

@laurieclarkson9180 6 месяцев назад

As a woman, that's what I struggle with--the weight of the saw. I want to focus on my cut and be aware of where the cord is and making sure that I do everything safely and it sucks to have to struggle with the shear weight of the thing. My husband is a big dude and his saw is a lot for me so I really appreciate your comment. I want to go with the Makita line or something other than Dewalt. Do you think I'd be better off with a 5"? I also see they have a 7" Magnesium version of the Makita he showed that claims to be lighter. Have any recommendations? I'll be doing a lot of framing and sheathing.

@TheNewbieWoodworker 3 года назад

Thanks for this video - it's really helpful. I'll be honest here - I'm not sure if I need to post the rest of this comment, but I wanted to be transparent. I made a video on my channel (The Newbie Woodworker) which basically says that people should go watch your video. The reason I made my video is because I get asked about circular saw safety every now and then, and since I don't have all that much experience with circular saws, I never had a good response. But when I saw your video, I figured that was going to be my stock answer from now on - "Go watch this video." But if people searched my videos, they wouldn't see anything about circular saws, so I figured that I'd make a short video pointing to yours, so now that hole's been plugged. I hope this makes sense, and although I can't imagine you'd mind my mentioning your video in one of mine, I wanted to make sure you knew.

One of the things I like about my SkilSaw is that it is a "Southpaw" version. Only a couple manufacturers make these. I was debating between this and a Makita, but opted for the non-worm drive which I found for the work I do too cumbersome, heavy, an unnecessary. I find the Southpaw version, being right handed but left eye dominant, much easier for blade tracking. Also, as you mention, I have a designated set of 5, 2x6 blocks of wood I use when cutting long boards, keeping the those nearest the cut within a couple inches. The 5th block is in case the board is 10+ ft long and could use the extra support. It really only takes about 10 seconds to grab them and set the up for a cut.
