Right on dude. Leaving the mistakes in so we can see why it's not right is very helpful.

@djericanthony 4 года назад

therealdiehl but I still say, do another video without mistakes too

@2AProud 4 года назад

PERFECT!!! I let the wife talk me into doing new countertops myself. The cutting of said countertops looked like a daunting task until I watched the video. Your method is simple in execution, and with you leaving in the little "gotchas" or mistakes you made lets me avoid the same problems. Double thumbs up for a great video! Thanks so much!

@icusawme2 3 года назад

No talking and just showing, my kind of demonstration video. Well done and thank you!

@ffryan 6 лет назад

Thanks for being humble enough to show the mistakes so the we can learn from them :)

@briantaylor9475 Год назад

Mistake #3 - you had the saw set to full depth. That only creates more resistance. That is one of the major reasons the blade got stuck at the end. You blade depth should be only deep enough so that the tooth gullet barely protrudes from the other side.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a laminate countertop that doesn't fit flush against the wall b/c the corner is not square. I need the end at a slight angle, but was trying to figure out how to make the cut with a circular saw. Thanks for sharing!

@sherryglass4214 5 лет назад

I know nothing about this so I didn't understand what the mistakes were. I think I got enough to cut my counter (hopefully). Thanks for posting this video. In my world, no one will help. I need things like this done, and all I have to go on is the RU-vid videos. I will say one thing though, I much prefer the videos where there is a human talking. I'm doing this because...this goes like this...this was wrong because...see right here--it should have been different...or don't do it this way because, etc... It helps me to understand what people are doing if they explain to me what i'm watching.

@YouthMinistryEmerge 4 года назад

I’ve found that using a regular blade on the saw works better than the fine tooth. As long as you tape the cut line you shouldn’t get any chipping or tare outs, and it cuts so much easier!

@LulluTube 6 лет назад

nice work and nicely done video. I have 2 questions as I have to do the same project in a couple of weeks. 1) Looks like a corded Circular Saw. Is it 13, 14 or 15 Amps? I will need to buy one for this project and want to make sure I get one with enough power. I am sure my 18 volt cordless won't be able to to the Job. 2) What blade did you use? 24, 40 or 60 teeth?

@masterofnone 6 лет назад

Mapi_Channel I have done this cut with a Ryobi 18v on other time works fine. Just have a fully charged battery. For the video I had the blade came with the saw. I believe it is 24t . I strongly suggest getting 60T for much better results.

@hz4826 4 года назад

@silviaretana2075 5 лет назад

Hello! Should I cut to the exact wall to wall measurements or a few millimeters less? Thanks!

@masterofnone 5 лет назад

Walls are never square . You will end up needing to make another cut to make it fit. I would cut couple mm smaller

@GearGuy 5 лет назад

Great idea leaving the mistakes in… But you should mention that they are still there and not corrected… My impression was that you were correcting them as you were pointing them out… But otherwise fantastic!

@qkcam45 7 лет назад

Do you need to fine tooth blades for this?

@masterofnone 7 лет назад

No you don't . It won't hurt to use if you have it. I am using the blade came with the Ridgid saw in this video

@jstawch2608 Год назад

I have a question i'm having trouble getting answered. I have an L shaped counter so I need to cut for a corner. Now i'm pretty sure i should do a 45 degree angle cut on both pieces and meet in the corner right? The IKEA instructions say to only do straight cuts. Can I do a 45 degree angle cut without messing up the counter?

@masterofnone Год назад

yes you can. it is harder to get this angle cut perfect. But it is ok to do . It will help if you have a track saw

@bartgoins1782 10 месяцев назад

I learned tons from the video, but would have preferred at least a voiceover explaining things a little better.

@angelamyluv3757 5 лет назад

How much space do leave on the side.say your cutting a piece to fit on top a 24 in cabinet. H0w much space do you want to hang over on each side.my fridge is on one side and stove on the other i got a lot pf play room to do it right

@masterofnone 5 лет назад

I would cut that @ 26 inches. That will leave one Inch on both sides.

I suppose the name of the channel served as a warning which I foolishly ignored. When I go to RU-vid looking for how to do something, I want a video from someone who has experience in the thing, not another person who is basically figuring it out like I am.

I know the sound was on b/c I could hear the saw, but there was no explanation that I could hear. I didn't understand what the first mistake was, though the text explained the second. This would have been vastly more useful if there had been an audio explanation.

@masterofnone 4 года назад

I am sorry I was not clear on that. Clamp was on the path of the saw. I needed to clamp it from the other side of the wood. I hope this helps.
