Question about squaring

How about a straight edge and router method?

-- What we do in life will Echo through Eternity........

Updated: Using my 12” MS I have successfully flipped the board to get a complete cut. Sometimes with batter precision than others. When I do this I take the time to set the 90 using a large square in BOTH dimensions FIRST. Yes, it takes practice but it can be done.

Before:
I use the TS Sled. Building and using the sled has made all the difference for me when it comes to repeating perfect cuts.

you could use a square as a guide for a skill saw. If you don’t think you can hold the square solid enough, clamp it. The other option is a square with a hand saw. I’m more accurate with option one, but you may be different.

I don’t have a router, I know should have been a early purchase, I did wonder about just a straight edge and circular saw with clean up with a block plane.

Horizontal my table saw is not square I have been messing with it since I got is and so my sled is not the route I want to do on the project.

I kinda thought I would go some route with a straight edge or square. I like the idea of a skill saw thanks Don

The way Don explains it is how i cross cut all the large board in my shop. I hold the framing square againt the board and let the edge of my circular saw run against it. Quick n easy.

I got this from HF to use with my circular saw and it works as good as the Bora clamps like it that I have used.
