CUTTING LARGE SHEETS
Large sheets and long boards sag or bend,
depending on support. If you attempt to cut
without leveling and properly supporting the
piece, the blade will tend to bind, causing

The two-by-fours used to raise and support
the work should be positioned so that the
broadest sides support the work and rest on
the table or bench. Do not support the work
with the narrow sides as this is an unsteady
arrangement. If the sheet or board to be cut is
too large for a table or work bench, use the
supporting two-by-fours on the floor and
